Working with Planning Projects
Last Updated 3/18/2011 4:23 PM

The purpose of this online guide is to provide a detailed introduction to the Maxiplan Cascade Planning system to those who will be building and deploying planning models within their organisation. 

Maxiplan Cascade is a web based application tool which permits the rapid development of complex multidimensional models of a company's financial and non-financial planning requirements. 

Providing powerful built-in functionality such as currency conversion, dynamic consolidation, rapid deployment and work flow monitoring, Maxiplan Cascade can help to overcome the problems typically associated with a spreadsheet approach to the planning involving many personnel in different locations.
