Hello,

actually seasonality check is done using autocorrelation test.

System will de-trend sales history, then calculate autocorrelation per lag (period shift) and ensure that maximum autocorrelation coefficient is higher that threshold value in TSA profile. Then calculate seasonal coefficients

more details can be found here: https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_HANA_PLATFORM/2cfbc5cf2bc14f028cfbe2a2bba60a50/d990dc754e714d95a30721a...

Thanks, Lev, we are looking at a seasonal pattern as a value like the percentage of sales in each period of the year i.e. months, with this value, we can split a year value in the different months base on this calculated index.
