Overview
In Basis, Reports are invaluable tools for gaining deeper insights into your company's performance. Whether you're creating an executive summary, a detailed departmental analysis, or evaluating product KPIs, the ability to compare different Scenarios within a report is a game-changer. This feature allows you to juxtapose actual outcomes against forecasts, such as your budget or hypothetical bull and bear cases.
How to Start Comparing in a Report
Finding the Scenario Picker: Look for the Scenario toolbar in the page header. It's your gateway to different Scenarios and Budgets.
Choose Your Contenders: You can select up to two additional Scenarios or Budgets to compare against the one you're currently viewing.
Viewing Your Comparative Report
Once you've made your selections, your report automatically updates to reflect the comparisons. Charts dynamically incorporate data from your chosen Scenarios, visually representing the differences and similarities. Likewise, tables adapt to display any analytical comparisons you've configured, just as they would with standalone Workbooks.
Conclusion
By utilizing Scenario comparisons in your reports, you unlock a powerful layer of analysis. This feature not only enriches your understanding of potential outcomes but also aids in strategic decision-making by visualizing various financial landscapes directly within your reports.
