Copying Management Ledger POVs

You can copy a POV to provide a starting point for a new model or scenario, or to create what-if scenarios for an existing model.

For example, you can begin a period by copying driver selections and assignments from the previous period, or you can create seed data for a forecast scenario by copying data from an actual scenario.

To copy POVs:

  1. In an open model, from Task Areas, select Manage Model, and then Points of View Manager (Figure 9-3).
  2. Select the POV to copy.
  3. Select Actions, and then Copy Point of View, Copy Point of View icon.

    You can check Job Library under Job Status in the Task Area to check the status of the copy.

    Depending on the size and complexity of the model, this operation may take a significant amount of time.
