About the Scenario Manager
You can view scenario details, start an optimization, delete a scenario, put a scenario into production, and more in the Scenario Manager.
See Editing Scenarios on page 52 for more information about editing your scenario.

To open Scenario Manager:
Choose Scenario > Scenario Manager. The Scenario Manager page opens.

A list of all the scenarios in your organization appear on this page. The scenarios can be viewed in four different reports, depending on your needs. Select the report you want from the Report drop-down menu.

Reports:
Basic Scenarios- Use this report to view minimal information about each scenario in the list (9 columns).
In Production- Use this report to view only scenarios that are in production.
Require Approval- Use this report to view all optimized scenarios that haven’t been approved.
Detailed Scenarios- Use this report to view the scenario list with the most detail (48 columns).

See Editing the reporton page 15 for more information about editing the report. Each report can also be exported to your hard drive so you can view and/or print it in your favorite editor, such as Microsoft Excel. See Exporting Data on page 31 for more information.

Viewing Scenario Details
Scenario Details displays top-level information, rules, and basic results. Results are only available if the scenario has been optimized.

To view scenario details:
Right-click a scenario and choose Scenario Details. The Scenario Details page opens.

You will see a summary of the category results, (if scenario has been optimized), CPI information (if the scenario uses a category that has a CPI associated and has been optimized), rules, the scenario goal, scope, timing, and name. If the scenario has been optimized, scroll to the right in the Rules box to view all rule exceptions.

The status at the top will show the scenario status. See Optimization statuses on page 54 for a complete list of the possible statuses.

If the status is editable, you can change any aspect of the scenario. See Editing Scenarios on page 52 for more information.

You can duplicate the scenario by clicking Duplicate, or you can start an optimization by clicking Optimize. If the scenario has already been optimized, you can go to Price Approval by clicking Price Approval, or you can view the results in more depth by clicking Results. You can also view the optimization results in graphical form by clicking Graphs. If the scenario is a production scenario, you can click Price Update to start a price update.
