Scenario Assumptions

In the Report section of your screen you will find a report tab called "Scenario Assumptions".  This tab holds the corporate agreed upon assumptions for overhead rates, benefit rates, salary increases, worktime %, etc. which are used as a default to drive calculations into the budgets you create.  Below is a list of those assumptions:

Assumptions that cannot be overridden:

• Overhead rates
• Benefit rates
• ??fee rates once they are in the model??
• ??other??

Note1:  Since scenario assumptions impact all users and all data in the planning model scenarios, only a small set of users has the authority to change scenario assumptions.

Note2: These assumptions are typically applied to the data entry values created in Salary and Non Salary planning grids.  The resulting calculations are only visible in the Employee Projections and overall Consolidated budget grids.

Assumptions that can be overridden:

• Employee Salary Increase % - in the Plan Employee Salaries tab
• Employee worktime % - in the Employee Assumptions tab
