I believe it represents deviation.  An absolute value in percentage away from what the actual sales were.  So if you predicted 100k and it sold 100k your deviation would be 0%.  The lower your percentage, the lower your deviation and the better prediction you made.  

Yeah, Kirby replied earlier and clarified that. I would suggest putting a + or - in front though to indicate whether you overestimated or underestimated sales.
You can discern that yourself of course, but it takes a few extra glances sideways and up.

If your memory can't buffer the sales of the 3 systems while looking for several people then you have an issue.
