Scenario Modelling

FAQs about creating, comparing, and applying cashflow scenarios in BCB.

  1. What is scenario modelling?
    Scenario modelling lets you test future decisions and potential endeavours without effecting your real data
  2. How do I create a manual scenario?

    To create a scenario, simply click ‘Manual’ in the top right corner of the scenario manager

  3. Can I make an AI scenario?

    BCB allows you to create AI assisted scenarios. Begin by clicking ‘AI assisted’ in the top right corner. Here you can write a brief summary of what your scenario would be, click ‘Create and start a chat’ to continue.

    This creates a chat with the AI, where it begins by asking questions to ensure your chosen scenario is correct.

    The scenario then reflects in the Cashflow page, showing you a visual representation of how your potential scenario affects your balance and cashflow.
  4. How do I change my scenario to my baseline/apply my scenario?
    Simply click ‘Apply’ under your scenario to add it to your baseline. This makes your scenario the new baseline. E.g. If I decided to hire the two new staff under the conditions outlined in my scenario.


  5. Can I compare multiple scenarios?
    Yes. You can view multiple scenarios on the cashflow page. You can also choose to remove the baseline from view by clicking the box next to ‘Baseline’. 


  6. Do scenarios affect my data?

    No. Scenarios are separate from your data and are represented by a dashed line in cashflow, while your accurate baseline is a solid line. Scenarios only become part of your baseline cashflow representation if you Apply them. A scenario will never change your actual data imported from Xero/MYOB.

  7. Can scenarios be duplicated/copied?

    Scenarios cannot be copied/duplicated at this stage. To create a replica of a previous scenario you will need to create a new one.

  8. What is the best way to use a scenario?

    Scenarios can be used for whatever you need. Whether that be testing hiring, pricing changes, equipment purchases, or future plans for growth.

  9. Can I model best and worst case outcomes?

    Yes. Scenario modelling is ideal for stress-testing different outcomes before they are put in practice.
