Adding Scenarios to Favorites

When you add an Excel shortcut to a scenario planning workbook, the shortcut is automatically added to the Internet Explorer Favorites menu.

You can create shortcuts only for scenarios that are In Progress or Submitted. If a scenario is no longer available (if it is approved, complete, or deleted), the shortcut opens the Integrated Operational Planning login screen.

When you select the Excel shortcut from the Favorites menu, the scenario planning workbook opens in Excel.

  To add an Excel shortcut to the Favorites menu:

  1. In the Analysis Workbench, select a scenario in the In Progress or Submitted state.

  2. Click Actions and select Add Excel Shortcut to Favorites.

  3. In the Internet Explorer Add Favorite dialog box, enter a name and select a location for the shortcut.

After adding the shortcut to the Favorites menu, you can save the shortcut on the Windows desktop or e-mail it to another user. You can also e-mail an Excel shortcut from the Integrated Operational Planning Analysis Workbench.
