Seasonality interacts with seasonal demand planning more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why seasonal demand planning matters on the Nex 4

Consistency across batches matters more than peak performance for Nex 4, and seasonal demand planning is where inconsistency first appears.
