Using a Sandbox Examples

Here are some scenarios where sandboxes can help you build plans.

  • You're creating a hiring plan, updating contract versus permanent employee headcount, and assessing the effect of various combinations on expenses and revenues. By analyzing and saving your analyses in a sandbox, your data is available only to you, not to everyone who has access to the affected Entity and Accounts. When you're ready, you make your plan available to others.

  • You're planning a project and have finished your expense planning, but you haven't yet planned for the project's revenue. By building this plan in a sandbox, your expense data is exclusive to you until you've also planned the revenue. When you've completed your project's plan, you publish the data in the sandbox.

  • You want to privately test different project dates to see their effect on the financials. When you decide on the optimal project dates, you publish the data.
