This article studies the effect of the excesses and
shortages in an organization, specifically in a product
whose demand is growing. A system dynamics model
was made through two diagrams two diagrams that
are joined and related. In one of the diagrams is easy
a sharing of forecast data, and in the main plot we can
see the relations in the selection of a forecast with other
components that are part of the organization. Based on
all the relationships, we concluded about the impact
of using three types of forecasts on finished goods
inventory, safety stock, the level of service and the
marginal utility of an organization.
