    3. Excel Integration:

    - Use Python's openpyxl or xlsxwriter libraries to export the processed data and predictions into an Excel workbook.
    - Design a dynamic Excel dashboard using pivot tables, charts, and slicers to showcase the historical sales data and future predictions.

    4. Interactive Features:

    - Implement dropdown lists in Excel to allow users to select specific products or regions.
    - Use Excel's conditional formatting to highlight significant increases or decreases in sales.

    5. Automated Data Refresh:

    - Write a Python script that can be scheduled (e.g., using Task Scheduler) to periodically fetch new sales data, run the forecasting model, and update the Excel dashboard.

    6. Documentation:

    - Create a detailed documentation on the project's methodology, tools used, and insights derived from the analysis.

    Outcome: A fully interactive sales forecasting dashboard in Excel that leverages the power of Python for data analytics. This tool will not only provide insights into past sales performance but also offer valuable predictions for future sales, aiding in business decision-making.
