The Scenario Planning for PPM application provides a central location for
portfolio managers to create and track the roadmap for project execution for a given fiscal year.
Optimize your budget and resource usage by creating and comparing different scenarios for your
project and demand roadmap or resources.

A scenario is a collection of demands and projects that serves as a planning instance for the
selected fiscal year to support funding decisions.

Eligible demands and projects in the portfolio are collected into a default or existing
scenario of the planning cycle. You use the default or existing scenario as a basis to create
additional scenarios. A demand or project can belong to more than one scenario in the current
planning cycle but it cannot belong to more than one portfolio. For more information, see [Create planning scenarios](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/LQLUgA01lw3Cig4KIC2cjg "Create planning scenarios with different combinations of projects and demands in your portfolio. Experiment with different scenarios to plan your budget expenditure for a fiscal year.").

## Impact on portfolio planning using Portfolio Workbench {#portfolio-planning-overview__section_chr_z3h_jlb}

Portfolio Workbench does not support a scenario-based portfolio planning. You can plan your
portfolio in simple or advanced planning modes. In advanced mode, you can repromote budget plan
and create a forecast plan. Starting with the Paris release, the Portfolio
Workbench has been deprecated for new customers. For more information, see [Portfolio
Workbench](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/y_FQha09z8mXRPmOAxCtOQ "The portfolio workbench provides a central location for viewing a list of associated demands and projects, planning a portfolio, and tracking its progress. Portfolio workbench is deprecated in the Paris release. Portfolio workbench is still available on instances upgraded from a previous release but is not available for new instances.").

With scenario-based planning, you can create multiple scenarios, compare them, and confirm or
reconfirm a scenario.  
If you are using the Portfolio Workbench for portfolio planning and want to switch to a scenario-based planning, note the following points:

* After installing Scenario Planning for PPM, remove the Portfolio Workbench module and related link from the Portfolio form. The de-activation of Portfolio Workbench is required to avoid conflicts with two methods of planning and data corruption. For more information, see [Enable or disable an application menu or
  module](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_EnDisableAppMenuOrMod&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US).
* Use the Portfolio Planning related link or the Portfolio Planning Workbench module to navigate to Portfolio Planning Workbench.
* All your existing selections of demands and projects for a portfolio appear as a default scenario when you open the Portfolio Planning Workbench. For more information, see [Create planning scenarios](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/LQLUgA01lw3Cig4KIC2cjg "Create planning scenarios with different combinations of projects and demands in your portfolio. Experiment with different scenarios to plan your budget expenditure for a fiscal year.").
