    Article summary

    • Use the Simulation process when the following occurs:

      • Change to Allocation Mappings

      • Changes in Segment Hierarchies

      • Change in Reference Templates

      • Change in Spreads

      • Change in Scenario Seed/Seed Scenario Changes

      • Completion of sub-line formula adjustments as part of the Seeding process (when using a Plan Scenario type)

    The Simulation Engine processes templates automatically instead of manually opening and saving the templates in order of dependency. The changes made to the templates are permanent. If a template is marked "Complete" or "Forwarded", the Simulation engine will override these settings.

    Note:
    Use of the Simulation Engine is typically reserved for an Administrator. The Simulation Engine can be run locally or scheduled to run on the Planful server.
