    Hi Molly,

    Can you use "Share Data from Source Scenario" instead? With the copy selection, you copy data from one scenario to another and then consolidate the new scenario, which then eliminates all IC data (and possibly custom rules) in the new scenario which is why you see data on O#Elimination I assume.

    When you use "Share", the data will dynamically be displayed, without eliminating during a consolidation.

Hi Henning,

Unfortunately, I cannot use the "Share Data from Source Scenario" function because that is a read-only scenario and we plan to book entries in the new scenario. 

Thanks for your explanation of the "Copy Input Data from Source Scenario." That makes sense to me and I think it's something we will be okay with.

Thanks for your help!

Molly
