Working with scenarios

A scenario is a named group of driver settings that you apply to plan files and other assets for forecasting purposes. Scenarios allow you to create what-if situations to see how those forecasts would project, for example, with different merits or revenue contract rate increases.

To use scenarios, first create a baseline scenario for your plan files, then create additional scenarios in which those driver values and assumptions can be modified. Apply the scenarios to your plan files and then compare the results.

If you do not create or manage scenarios, you will still use them every time you open a plan file or use a report or utility that requires you to select a scenario on open.
