How do I analyse Scenarios in Reports and Dashboards

Scenarios are layers you add to existing Budgets and can be selected in the Report Builder Screen or on the Dashboard Screen

Written by Sandra McCarthy

To view the impact of Scenarios on your existing budgets in Reports navigate:

  • Reports > Builder Screen

  • Select the Template

  • Set the Budget Version

  • Add the Scenario/s

  • Refresh the screen to Preview

You can SAVE this selection to a Report Bundle for future reference.

On the Dashboards screen, in the orange banner you can Select

  • Organisation

  • Budget Version

  • Scenario/s

  • The Dashboard will automatically refresh

You can add a saved configuration for a Dashboard to a Report Bundle in the Bundle Screen, select the Bundle to add to and then select ADD A DASHBOARD, set the criteria as required and ADD Dashboard.

See the Scenarios: Overview help article for more details.

WARNING ⚠️Once Scenarios are merged to a Budget they will be marked as Archived in the Scenario Manager. Having the Scenario still selected in a report or Dashboard will prevent the report generating and giving an error message advising that:

[Scenario Name] has either been Deleted or Archived. Please review the saved criteria for this report.

Update the Report from a Bundle by clicking CONFIGURE and deselecting the [Scenario Name], or if it is still required, reactivate by navigating to:

Budget Tools > Scenario Manager > [Scenario Name] > Toggle to Green
