The Default Forecast Type can be set via: Setup > Sales > Sales Preferences.
Changes on the Forecast Types can affect Forecasting reports. Tracking down changes on the Forecast Type allows
the user to determine the changes on the Forecast report values (e.g. changing from Omitted to Most Likely will increase the Most Likely Calculated amounts).
