Seasonality interacts with seasonal demand planning more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why seasonal demand planning matters on the Prime Max

A written internal standard for seasonal demand planning makes onboarding new account managers far quicker and reduces avoidable errors.
Build a buffer for promotional periods rather than reordering at the last minute.
