Compare Alternatives

As you try different strategies to reduce over-budget projections, you need to compare and refine approaches. Perhaps you have done this by saving various copies of your worksheet and viewing them simultaneously.

Another way to compare is to save different sets of projections on a single worksheet, as scenarios. Enter your values, either by goal seeking or by typing the values. Save these original values as a scenario, then enter and save other sets of values to try out other reallocation strategies. You can view all the scenarios on the same worksheet.

Click Scenarios (Tools menu) to define and display scenarios.
