=== Forecasts cannot be created for population jobs
If you use an `over_field_name` property in your job (that is to say, it's a
_population job_), you cannot create a forecast. If you try to create a forecast
for this type of job, an error occurs. For more information about forecasts,
see <<ml-forecasting>>.

=== Forecasts cannot be created for jobs that use geographic, rare, or time functions
If you use any of the following analytical functions in your job, you cannot
create a forecast:
* `lat_long`
* `rare` and `freq_rare`
* `time_of_day` and `time_of_week`
If you try to create a forecast for this type of job, an error occurs. For more
information about any of these functions, see <<ml-functions>>.
