Consensus forecast refers to a business process, not a
system function. It basically means forecast created with
the mutual agreement of the various business functions,
e.g. supply chain, finance, sales, etc.
As such it is not linked to any statistical forecast models
(I assume you meant that) and you can use any and all
models, it will not create a consensus forecast for you.
You have to take your numbers and discuss and agree about
them with your colleagues of the different departments.
That's what will make your forecast consensus based.

by taking eg.. production forecast qty, marketing
forecasting qty and planned qty.. and so on..

I hope this will help you..
