Creating a Plan Scenario

If you have read and write access to a plan, you can create scenarios for the plan.

To create a plan scenario:

1. Open the plan that contains the original scenario.
2. In the plan table, click Manage Scenarios. The existing scenarios are displayed.
3. If the scenario that the new scenario is created from contains cell comments and you want to copy the comments to the new scenario, select Clone Comments When Creating Scenarios.
4. Click .
5. In the Scenario Name column, enter a name for the scenario.
6. Select the scenario that the new scenario is created from. The default scenario is selected by default.
7. [Optional] In the Description column, enter a description.
8. If you want the new scenario to be the default scenario for the plan, select Default.
9. Click Save. The plan table reloads to display the default scenario.

The new scenario is created immediately but it is populated in the background. The new scenario and the original scenario are locked for editing until the background process finishes.
