Plan and Analyze Using Value Driver Trees

To quickly simulate different scenarios and see how individual value changes affect the overall scenario, you can enter data directly in a value driver tree based on a planning model.

Select a value to change it. You can use your keyboard or the keypad to edit the value. You can enter a new value, or change the existing value using the slider or arrow keys. You can also input a mathematical function, such as +10% (to increase the value by 10%) or +-300 (to reduce the value by 300). The new value is entered to the model, and the rest of the value driver tree updates to show the effects of your change.

To undo or redo data changes, you can open the Version Management panel from a table showing the same model. For more information, see Undo, Redo, and Revert Changes to Versions.

To navigate the tree, click and drag within the tile and use the mouse wheel to zoom. You can also right-click and enable Center View () to center on nodes as you select them.

To find individual nodes, there’s a search button in the upper right corner.

If you want to hide nodes that you don’t need, right-click a node and select Collapse Node to hide its descendants. Use the right arrow that appears next to the node to expand it again ().

A map of the value driver tree is displayed in the lower-left corner by default, and you can drag the selected area in the map or use the zoom buttons to change the view of the value driver tree, or you can select Fit to Screen to show all nodes in the tile. You can also hide the map or drag it to reposition it on the tile.
