Committing Plan Changes to the Database

When all approvers have approved a scenario, the scenario final plan changes are committed to the base data in Integrated Operational Planning. Key Metrics, Key Assumptions, and Scenario Impact information are saved with the scenario. The analysis owner can then move the scenario from the Approved state to the Complete state.

Note:

Individual worksheet cell data changes and cell comments exist only while a scenario is in progress. They are not saved when a scenario is committed to the Integrated Operational Planning database.

  To move a scenario from the Approved state to the Complete state:

  1. In the Analysis Workbench, click the name of a scenario with a status of Approved.

  2. In Apply Changes, enter comments and select whether to send an e-mail notification to the analysis owner, participants, or approvers when the scenario is complete.

  3. Click Commit.

    The entire scenario moves to the Complete state.

    Note:

    You can view an analysis history for completed scenarios; however, you cannot open them in Excel. Scenarios must be moved to the Complete state before they can be deleted.
