Control Group
A mechanism to relate vouchers together for the purpose of controlling voucher input into
PeopleSoft Payables. Generally used for assigning vouchers to data entry personnel and for
reviewing input.
A set of parameters that determines the major forecast process options. The Control Group
code is assigned to a group of Forecast Item and controls the forecast development and
tracking for each item in the group.
Control groups are used by the Analytic Forecast Component to govern particular properties
of the forecast rule, such as what accuracy to expect and what statistical method to apply.
Forecast elements are assigned to exactly one control group. They manage differences among
forecasts within a set.
