SAS Forecast Studio- How to run batch forecasts using different start dates?

[atiedt]

I'm fitting batch forecasts in Forecast Studio. For example:

Fiscal Yr	YearMo	Total	Series 1	Series 2	Series 3	Series 4
2006	200510	26338	16979	5293	10509	1177
2006	200511	24133	15026	4211	9708	1107
2006	200512	27442	16378	5184	10068	1126
2006	200601	25831	15533	4351	10104	1078
2006	200602	26873	15395	2954	11257	1184
2006	200603	32136	19377	4093	13789	1495
2006	200604	58889	49849	36822	11929	1098
2006	200605	72679	62809	48554	13008	1247
2006	200606	37749	27585	12171	14169	1245
2006	200607	32967	24055	10258	12543	1254
2006	200608	30900	19856	3972	14202	1682
2006	200609	27756	17866	3026	13350	1490
2007	200610	27915	18024	2987	13440	1597
2007	200611	24968	15801	2646	11784	1371
2007	200612	25051	15096	2575	11289	1232
2007	200701	27525	15833	2405	12142	1286
2007	200702	27436	15634	2641	11788	1205
2007	200703	30060	17432	3515	12712	1205
2007	200704	125015	113958	98665	13978	1315
2007	200705	33470	22134	5020	15486	1628
2007	200706	32546	21665	4678	15077	1910
2007	200707	34519	22897	4887	16224	1786
2007	200708	26916	16899	3603	11938	1358
2007	200709	27510	17369	2900	12901	1568

Without editing out dates prior to import, is it possible to adjust individual time series so that some forecasts begin on different dates than other time series in the same batch? For example, Series 1 and 2 Begin on 200610, while all other series begin on 200510?

Thanks!

I am not sure I fully understand your question. Do you want to set the forecasts to missing values for some dates? 

If so, it would have to be done outside Forecast Studio. Forecast Studio generates a forecast for the first date for which it is feasible. You can create a stored process to do that and then run it within Forecast Studio. But that would still require manual coding.
