         <ListIntro>Carry out the following steps to compare the performance of
		  two scenarios:</ListIntro>
         <ListItem>Click the Find Record
		  icon on the toolbar to go to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rao/cprao2202s000" role="session">Find Performance Indicators (cprao2202s000)</GUIRef> session, in which you can enter the two
		  scenarios that you want to compare.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>
            <Paragraph>Enter the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#PlanLevel_ti" role="glossary">plan level</Link> of the scenarios.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>Note:
			 You can only compare <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#PlanItems_ti" role="glossary">plan items</Link> that have the same plan level in the two
			 scenarios.</Paragraph>
         </ListItem>
         <ListItem>Select the range of resources and plan items for which you
		  want to view the performance indicators.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>If you want to view the performance indicators for a specific
		  resource only or for a specific plan item, enter the same resource or plan item
		  in both the From field and the To field.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>
            <Paragraph>Click the OK button to start the computation and go back to
			 the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rao/cprao2203s000" role="session">Scenario Performance (cprao2203s000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>ERP Enterprise computes the values of all performance indicators and stores them separately
			 for each individual plan item and resource. In the next step these values can
			 be <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#Aggregate_ti" role="glossary">aggregated</Link> for ranges of resources and plan
			 items.</Paragraph>
         </ListItem>
      </ProcedureList>
      <Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rao/cprao2203s000" role="session">Scenario Performance (cprao2203s000)</GUIRef> session ERP Enterprise displays the results
		of the previous step and displays the total or the average of these indicators
		for the selected resources and plan items.</Paragraph>
      <Note>
         <SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>When there is a change
		  in the data on which the computation is based (for example, the <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000015" role="glossary">demand forecast</Link>), the
		  performance indicators are not automatically updated. If you want to make sure
		  that the indicators reflect the current planning situation, recompute them by
		  repeating steps 4 and 5.</Paragraph>
      </Note>
      <Paragraph>For an explanation of
		each performance indicator, see the help information of the performance
		indicator fields.</Paragraph>
      <Note>
         <SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>All indicator
		  computations which are carried out for a range of <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000109" role="glossary">plan periods</Link> start with the
		  plan period in which the current date falls. For instance, when the field help
		  information states that an indicator is computed for all plan periods, you must
		  keep in mind that plan periods which lie completely in the past are
		  ignored.</Paragraph>
