Which sheet type is used for complex calculations?

The modeled sheet is specifically designed to handle complex calculations in Workday Adaptive Planning. Modeled sheets allow users to incorporate advanced features like multi-dimensional modeling, which includes the ability to create interdependencies between various data elements. This makes it ideal for scenarios where intricate financial scenarios or detailed analyses are required, such as forecasting and budgeting where multiple factors interact.

In contrast, standard sheets are typically used for straightforward data entry and reporting, while basic sheets focus on simpler calculations without the sophisticated functions available in modeled sheets. Cube sheets, while powerful for aggregating data across multiple dimensions, are not as suited for performing the complex calculations that modeled sheets can handle. Therefore, for users needing to implement intricate calculations and multi-dimensional analysis, the modeled sheet is the most suitable option.
