About 10 years ago I worked at a company called Nu-kote that did printer / ink supply chain stuff. They had clients like office depot office max etc... There was a system alled extenterprise that was like the daily dashboard / forecasting system for the sales team. On my 3rd day I fixed some problems that extenterprise was having. After about 3 months I was given a bonus because my forecasting algorithm was substantially more accurate than what was previously being used and it saved / made the company tons of money.
