Understanding the plan start date and as-of dates

Distinguish scenario planning dates from as-of-today views without assuming unsupported calculation effects.

Planworth uses dates for different purposes. Keep the date and product surface together when comparing results.

The supported distinction

  • A scenario's planning dates belong to that saved Financial Insights scenario and are reviewed under Assumptions.

  • Statements provides current-position views with an as-of date.

  • The Evaluation holds client information used by the product, while an existing scenario retains its saved assumptions until they are changed.

An as-of-today balance and a scenario projection therefore answer different questions and should not be expected to match without considering their time frames.

Review a date difference

  1. Confirm Current Scenario.

  2. Open Assumptions and note the scenario dates shown.

  3. Note the as-of date on the Statement you are comparing.

  4. Confirm whether the relevant client information was updated in the Evaluation.

  5. Trace the first affected year in Details.

Do not infer first-year, year-to-date, registered-withdrawal, or calculation behaviour from a date label alone. Contact Planworth Support when a date difference produces an unexpected result.
