View plans in a single base year format
In a multiple-year, multiple-alternative plan, Planner CS can display the first plan year in a single column. Calculated carryforward amounts from the base year column will transfer forward to subsequent plan years under each alternative.
note
When you convert to a single base year, you will be prompted to choose an alternative from which the first year will be used as the base year of the plan. The data for the first year in all other alternatives will be lost. You may want to back up your data before converting to a single base year format.
