How Actions Are Calculated

MyPlan calculates the impact of your actions for the entire scenario; not just the current year/period. For example, let's say you have a 2 year budget scenario (i.e. 2018-2019). Any modifications done to scenario data in MyPlan will be calculated for the entire 2 years on a period by period basis (i.e. monthly/quarterly).

For example, a user selects a 2018 period in the MyPlan dashboard and adds an employee named Wally Smith on September 3rd, 2018. The cost calculation will apply to both 2018 and 2019 instantly. Calculations are held in memory so that you can see all cost instantly and submit your actions. The impact to all years/periods of the scenario is displayed in Activity Manager as shown in the example below.

Now, let’s say an employee is added to a Q4 of 2018 Forecast scenario on November 1st of 2018. MyPlan will calculate the total compensation for the new employee for November and December of 2018 as well as the additional periods/years associated with the Forecast scenario.
