The basic process for using Crystal Ball EPM is to:
Open a view of data to analyze.
Define cells of the data view as Crystal Ball data cells (assumptions, forecasts, or decision variables).
Run a Crystal Ball EPM simulation on it.
Analyze the results.
For detailed guidelines, see Important Guidelines for Use.
While Monte Carlo simulation is easy to understand and straightforward, you should become familiar with the basic concepts and features of Crystal Ball EPM before using it with EPM applications. The best way to quickly familiarize yourself with Crystal Ball EPM is to work through the tutorials in Crystal Ball Tutorials.
