Take a snapshot

You can capture snapshots of a scenario at any time and use snapshots for comparison.

To take a snapshot of a scenario:

From the PPM menu, click Open > Portfolio Management.
In the upper-right corner, click What-if Analysis .
From the What-if Analysis page, open a scenario for which you want to create a snapshot.
On top-left of the page, click Take Snapshot.
In the Create Snapshot page, provide a name for the snapshot.
Click Done.

The snapshot preserves a copy of the scenario. You can compare a snapshot with other snapshots or scenarios to see what is the impact of different invest plans so as to determine an optimal scenario. For details, see Compare scenarios.

You can export a scenario as a Portable Network Graphics (.png) file.

To export a scenario as an image:

Open the details page of the scenario you want to export.
At the top-right corner, click Export.

The entire content and graphs present within the scenario are exported to the image file.

Note:

The export to image function is not supported on Safari because the component used to export the scenario to image is unsupported on Safari.
Excessive content and graphs in a scenario may cause export failure on the Firefox browser.
