Compares the draft with the latest published version: forecast weeks and planning settings, with previous and new values. If the demand data itself changed, the page says the numbers are not comparable rather than listing them as edits.
The publish form creates a numbered version with forecast weeks, assumptions and decisions. Published history lists every version with its author and time.Publishing freezes the plan for discussion. It doesn’t check that forecasts or assumptions are right. See Publish a plan.
