How do What if scenarios work?

A What if scenario is your forecast with your own changes, so you see what a decision does to profit first. Open What if at the top right of the Forecast. Nothing in it changes your costs, your rules or your history. Days already booked this month never move.

The panel has two parts. Scenario shows which version you see: Your forecast, Unsaved changes or a saved scenario. Changes holds the levers in five groups: Demand, Marketing, Prices & discounts, Costs and Fixed costs. Each lever is a number field. Type a number, or nudge it with − and +. A group says how many of its levers you changed.

Period, at the top of Changes, picks the months your percent changes count in. The bottom of the panel shows EBITDA for the next 12 months, from your forecast to the new figure. Chips show how Net revenue, CM2, Marketing and Overhead move. Reset takes you back to the forecast, and Done closes the panel.

While a scenario is on, every card on the page shows it. A bar at the top says Showing, the scenario's name and what it does to EBITDA, with Change and Back to forecast. The Next 12 months chart and the Forecast P&L also show each month without it, so you can compare.

An owner or admin can save scenarios. An Analyst, the team role that can look but not change, can try every lever but cannot save. Each group has its own answer: the Demand and Marketing levers, and the price and cost levers. Each extra €1 brings and Match my EBITDA goal have one too. Saving, renaming and deleting are covered in saving a scenario.
