Using the report wizard to create a scenario comparison
The Scenario Comparison Report allows you to compare two to four scenarios in a tabular and
graphical side-by-side comparison report.
Procedure 5-26 Selecting scenarios and setting the data range
1. From the Capacity Advisor tab, select Report
→Create Scenario Comparison Reports...
.
2. If you have pre-selected the scenarios (on the Capacity Advisor tab) that you want to
compare, review the information displayed on this screen. If it is satisfactory, go to step 5
to set the date range. If you need to select scenarios to compare, continue with step 2.
Want to compare more than four scenarios?:
One way to do this is to run and save multiple reports, and then print them out to compare
them side-by-side. For example, to compare six scenarios, run one report with four scenarios
and one report with two scenarios. Lay the printouts side-by-side to compare various aspects
of the scenarios.
3. Select Edit Scenario Selection.
A new screen appears showing the possible scenarios to include in the comparison report.
4. Check the box to the left of the scenarios to include.
