Hi guys - curious if anyone has tried to do this… I am trying to create a new scenario that is based off of a previous “snapshot” version of an application. This doesn’t show up for me as an option when choosing the “initial source of data” dropdown in the new scenario creation prompts. 

 

We use snapshot functionality to catalog our forecast versioning, so if I have a “4+6 Forecast” as a snapshot scenario from 2 months ago that we want to use as a basis for second half reforecast, I’d have to reference that dataset (not the live forecast) for our baseline/starting data. Anyone know how to accomplish this?

Unfortunately, at the moment you cannot use P2P import with snapshot, so if you’re data is only in a snapshot you cannot refer to/copy it.

However, what you can do is copy data from one scenario to another using the Copy Scenario Inputs feature.

 

So the idea is I create a new scenario without that initial source of data, then I would go to my snapshot scenario to copy scenario inputs to my new scenario. Did I understand that correctly?
