Selecting Scenarios

Set the context of the data that you want to work with before performing any task, for example, uncut blocks or previous runcuts in the Select Scenario dialog.

Make sure that the data required to fill in the fields in has been previously defined in FX Ancillary Data and that block data has been created for the Sign-Up Period, Divisions, Services, and Exception Combos that need a runcut.
The name of the scenario that is currently loaded is shown in the Scenario field, which is in the left section of the top ribbon.
