Premier
Edition only Implementation depends on tracking
and following up, and that's where plan vs. actual
analysis is critical. Track business performance by
monitoring the variance between the original plan and
how the company actually performed. When things turn out
different from the original plan, pay attention - your
numbers are telling you something.
The Management
Dashboard, new in Version 11.0, gives you a quick visual
overview of how your plan is living up to real-world
results. Special Dashboard Overview charts for Sales and
Expenses let you see Planned, Actual, and Variance
results in a single glance.
If you started your
plan by importing from QuickBooks, you can even import
your real accounting numbers to populate the Actual
tables, saving you time. As your plan starts rolling,
you will want to revise budgets and forecasts, making
course corrections in your Sales Forecast, Profit and
Loss, and Milestones Actual tables. At year end, you can
even roll your plan forward into the new to continue
your implementation and planning.
