One that maybe @Mariana Menchero or @Marco know the answer to, with someone who is trying to forecast a table that has multiple unique_ids, that might depend on each other. Text in thread.

_I’m experimenting with your TimeGPT model, and I’m trying to forecast a table that has multiple unique_ids, that might depend on each other._ This is the sample data I’m working with: The ds column is Month, and the y column is Activity. _The main unique_id column is Currency Pair, but I also have the Account column that distinguishes the Activity._ To use the TimeGPT APIs, I tried to pivot the table on Account, and have something like this: _df = df.pivot_table(index=['Month', 'Currency Pair'],_ columns='Account', _values='Activity').reset_index()_ What can you recommend for my scenario where the value to forecast could depend on N other columns, and the model automatically infers the relationships/weights?

My understanding is that TimeGPT, by default, analyzes and predicts all series concurrently. However, if he wants to use cash and receivables as features, then he must pass them in the
X_df
argument and provide future values of them for the forecast period.

I agree with Marco, and would also recommend doing some finetuning. This seems to be a case where using the user's data is important, instead of just relying in the zero-shot model.

Thanks both! I'll respond with that information.

We can link to tutorials on the website: exogenous features and multiple series and finetuning

@Marco @Mariana Menchero Luca Spolidoro asked this question, and had some follow up questions to my response. So, I suggested he join our Slack so he can ask there directly. He's going to do that, so you'll likely see the follow up to this question there.
