[UX] Edit forecast

[UX META] OpenSearch Dashboards Forecasting Dev Ops Metrics
[Proposal] Forecasting Dev Ops Metrics and Financial/Inventory Metrics

What solution would you like?

• Forecast page serves both view and edit experiences. The layout is organized by using Described form groups in read-only or editable states respectively.
• User can view and edit forecast configuration in “Configuration” tab that includes data source details and model parameters. User can view and edit forecast name, description and storage options in “Details” tab.
• To turn the form into editable state user selects “Edit” in the top right corner of the tab content.
• To be able to edit forecast in one of the states that are updating on every interval to produce a new datapoint or perform a check for the new data (“Running”, “Initializing test”, “Initializing forecast”, “Awaiting data to initialize forecast”, “Awaiting data to restart forecast”) user will stop or cancel forecast beforehand. Stopping forecast or cancelling awaiting data will transition the forecast into “Inactive” state.
• If user selects “Cancel” to discard the changes or exit the edit mode, the forecast needs to be restarted (By selecting “Test” or “Start forecast”) to go into its initial state.
• Changing forecast configuration will regenerate the visualization. This will not allow to display previously stored historical forecasts on the visualizations. User needs to be aware of this potential change while selecting to edit a forecast in “Awaiting data to restart” or “Running state”.
• User might attempt a conflicting action while editing the forecast (examples: selecting an action from the header, navigating away from the page). In this cases a conflicting action modal will be displayed.

Screen 3.14: Conflicting action modal

Delete forecast

User can delete a forecast from the Forecasts list view or from a forecast page. When user selects “Delete” button, the system displays the confirmation modal to avoid accidental deletion. For the running state and for initializing test or initializing forecast the confirmation modal contains a callout highlighting the state of the forecast. No cancelling or stopping is required to delete a forecast.
