Scenarios

Scenarios are versions of your budget that you create to reflect a "what if" situation. This gives you insight as to how different values affect the budget without the need to change the base budget.

Scenarios give you insight into possible future realities and how they can effect your company's bottom line.

You can examine how different pricing models, headcount, or investments could affect the future financial standing of your company. For example, you can check the impact to your budget if sales are 10% lower than expected, and then check what happens if sales exceed your expectations by 10%.

After you build your scenario, you can compare the scenario against your budget in the Sheets tab to compare or demonstrate the differences. For more information, see Compare the working budget with a scenario.
