Hi,

I have the following command which saves x12 forecasts to a new series object called cpi_b1:

cpi.x12(mode="m", filter="msr", save= "b1 d10 d11 d12 d13", arima="(0 1 1)(0 1 1)",f)

I also need to save the standard errors of the forecasts. I have tried finding it in the EViews guides and references and also tried Google with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I'm not sure if the version of X12 we use supports that.

The standard error are available on the output from x12 (using proc menu from the series):

FORECASTING
Origin 2012.Aug
Number 12

2013.Jul 183.70 6.254
2013.Aug 183.70 6.503

So, its not possible to extract them as a series via command line?

I couldn't find an option to do so in the X12 reference.
