I believe you are a SAP consultant for sales and is looking for something to present a forecast for the next three months.
You can either check up the past years similar time sales for each month for next three months and multiply by the expected growth rate this year you will get the sales forecast for the next three months. From this you state how you are going to achieve these targets. How your marketing people are going to be stimulated to achieve this. What they are supposed to be doing etc;. The effect of competition, substitutes, regulation etc; which is going to help or thrawt your efforts in these three months. This is a simple way to do it considering your case. Professionals planners use statistical software for this which is probably something your company can afford to get for you and you are in a position to use. Probably this type of planning is not required otherwise they wouldn't have handed over the responsibility to a new enitity in the company. They would have created a long term and short term plan and created a manual or something which everyone in the organization need follow in these planned periods to achieve targets sometimes event with contingency plans. So good luck go ahead make some simple forecasts and try to incorporate some marketing tactics to achieve and your business plan is ready. Good luck.

How To Get Started On A Business Plan
A business plan is a clear course of action for small and large businesses. Without a clear plan, it is nearly impossible to win the favor of an investor. You can also forget about a bank loaning you money. Even though you've mapped out your business plan in your head, it still needs to be presented in black and white.
It is critical that you plan properly for making decisions, setting priorities, and training management. This means you need more than a bunch of numbers. You will need some hard facts. Planning requires an equal balance between detail and concept.
You will need to gather as much information as possible about the products or services you intend to offer before drafting your business plan. You will want to consult with several sources of information to do this such as books, journals, magazine articles or just about anything that would have information you might be able to use.
You can start writing your plan once you have gathered all of the relevant information. The Internet has sites offering business plan templates in case you feel overwhelmed or confused by the whole process.

Collecting the Information You Need
In order for your business plan to be accurate and within reason, you will need to collect a wide range of materials. The information provided in this article is a starting point. I believe this basic material will give you a good place to start without becoming overwhelmed.
Besides researching the "how-to" to writing a business plan, surf through the Internet one click at a time. You can also scan a book; paying close attention to business names, cost of products/services, location, leasing fees, and the market. All of this information will be useful when you begin writing your business plan to success. Take a legal pad and make note of the following.
Business Name: Note the kind of industry you plan to enter. Think of a catchy name and then research it to make sure it is not being used by someone else. Then, ask yourself if it tells potential customers the nature of your business. Plus, be sure to ask yourself what exactly is in a name anyway.
Business Name: Write down the kind of field you have interest in joining. You want a name that people will remember. Once you think you have one, do some research to make sure that no one is already using it? Next, ask yourself it tells people what kind of business you have.
Cost of Equipment/Supplies: To list what your business needs are, you need to know what it is going to cost you to set up. Take account of the equipment your competitor has in his business. Find a distributor to provide you with a quote for your business equipment and supplies. Next, evaluate what is necessary to start your business, and what you can purchase at a later date.
Location: Business is always about location. Profits are definitely affected by where you are situated. If two restaurants in a mall offer the same kind of food, it is not likely that you will corner the market. But, if you have a family restaurant and are competing against some fast food dive, your odds improve greatly.
Personnel: The costs of maintaining quality personnel can be very high and potential investors will want to know how you intend to manage them. During the first few years of a business, you want to keep expenses down so that you can build equity in the company. Who are your star performers going to be and how much can you afford to pay them?

Making Sense Out of Your Notes
The banks and investors have the potential to reward you for all of the hard work and effort you put into creating your business plan. These people, however, must be confident that you know what you are talking about or they are not going to trust you with their money. Without specific experience or research in the industry, you have almost no chance of securing capital.
You always want to make your first impression count so that you have the best odds of winning investors over to your cause. You want them to believe in your dream so don't ruin it by showing up with little more than a legal pad if you hope on convincing them that you are a worthy risk.
Every morsel of information has its place within your business plan. When you're doing it yourself, pay close attention to your answers. Double check for grammar errors and sentence structure.
