Select Status Report per Planning Object

Information

  • Planning object data from released status reports or from the current planning object status are used as a basis for simulation.

  • For simulation, a released status report must be selected for each portfolio planning object. If particular planning objects do not have released status reports, status reports of the current status, which are only used for portfolio simulation, will be created automatically when you start creating a simulation.
