Abstract(in English) Academic analysis of sales forecast for new items on sale in convenience store is insufficient. As a preliminary analysis, the authors have derived some association rules for every shop concerning demand of new "onigiri" and "cup ramen" by utilizing POS data on sale. In this paper, we try to find some general knowledge independent of a shop. Concretely, based on a hearing from a convenience store company A, we describe there exists a need for sales forecast in the second week for a new item. We adopt it as a target variable, and derive its effective explanatory variables by the use of data mining technique, based on the cooperation of the company A. We have confirmed that we can obtain some effective association rules, if we adopt these target variable and explanatory variables and perform distinct data mining for each shop.
