A scenario layers a set of assumption changes on top of a budget version so you can ask “what if” and compare the answer against your base, side by side.

What you can change

  • Hiring pace and timing for headcount.
  • Growth, churn, and renewal rates for revenue.
  • Specific assumptions on specific departments, streams, or periods.

How it works

1

Create a scenario

Branch from a base version. The scenario starts identical to the base.
2

Adjust assumptions

Change only what you want to test. Everything else inherits from the base. You can ask Nova to draft the assumption changes for you.
3

Compare

View the scenario against the base in Comparison Center to see the delta on every line.
Scenarios are non-destructive. Your base plan is never touched, so you can explore freely and keep only the versions worth keeping.
