Simulation Engine

What Is It And When Do I Use It?

Use the Simulation process when there is a change in Scenario Seed/Seed Scenario Changes.

Simulation processing is an automated way of saving templates. This process helps to re-compute and save template data based on changes to the reference data or other global drivers. For example, salary is often referenced from the Workforce template in the department operating expense template. If there are any changes to employee position, the changes in the Workforce template must propagate to its dependent template(s). The Simulation Engine processes templates automatically instead of manually opening and saving the templates in order of dependency.
