    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for proactively predicting demand based on sparse transaction data. One example method includes receiving a request to predict transaction quantities for a plurality of transaction entities for a future time period. Historical transaction data for the transaction entities is identified for a plurality of categories of transacted items. The plurality of categories are organized using a hierarchy of levels. Multiple levels of the hierarchy are iterated over starting at a lowest level. For each current level in the iteration, features to include in a quantity forecasting model for the current level are identified. The quantity forecasting model is trained using the identified features.
    Predicted transaction dates are predicted for the current level by a transaction date prediction model. The quantity forecasting model is used to generate predicted quantity information for the current level for the predicted transaction dates.

One example method includes receiving a request to predict transaction dates for a plurality of transaction entities for a future time period. Historical transaction data for the transaction entities is identified for a plurality of categories of transacted items. The plurality of categories are organized using a hierarchy of levels. Multiple levels of the hierarchy are iterated over, starting at a lowest level. For each current level in the iteration, a plurality of transaction date prediction models are trained and tested. Heuristics for the plurality of trained transaction date prediction models are compared to determine a most accurate transaction date prediction model. The most accurate transaction date prediction model is used to make a prediction of transaction dates for the current level for the future time period.
