📤 Bring Your Depletions Data into Confido

You can now import Depletions data into Confido in just a few clicks.
This ensures your Depletions are mapped correctly, so you can start building forecasts with confidence. To learn more about Depletions-Based Forecasting for UNFI and KeHE, watch the webinar on demand.
⏎ Roll Back Confirmed Opportunities

Plans change — and now your Opportunity records can too. Users can now roll back or recall a “Confirmed” Opportunity if something shifts or was confirmed in error. This gives your team more flexibility and control when planning, without needing workarounds or support tickets.

Calculating Incremental Lift with Confidence

When importing consumption data, you don’t need to stress if your file doesn’t break out base vs. incremental units. Confido will determine your base sales and any promotional lift using your historical data — identifying your steady state to derive accurate splits.
That means more confidence in your data and more reliable forecasts, even when your retail files are missing key details.
