Recorded history unavailable means the forecast cannot establish the historical comparison for that source. It is not a recorded result of zero revenue or zero expense. The editor preserves that distinction when saving a forecast with its source evidence.
Check the selected company, historical dates and current book permissions. Refresh the evidence if the page offers that action. If the source remains unavailable, explain the limitation when using the forecast rather than describing the projection as validated by complete past results.
Future assumptions still need their own support. Entering an estimate does not fill a missing historical record or certify the company's prior accounting. Keep any proposed reconstruction of history in the appropriate accounting process with its supporting evidence.
When the recorded source becomes available or is corrected, create and review a new version. Do not assume an older saved forecast updates itself. Compare the newly established history with the assumptions and record why the version changed so the review trail distinguishes source recovery from a change in the future plan.
