Menu | <<<< | >>>> | [Save Solution] – click to save solution with a name and description

When you are satisfied that a solution is acceptable, you can click the [Save Solution] button to save it. This menu pops up and prompts you for a name. Next it will prompt you for a brief explanation. The solution name and explanation stay with the solution workbook and appear when you make pivot tables and charts or other outputs from saved solutions. They also appear in the list of saved solutions. This procedure provides a simple but effective, documentation of solutions for your model.

Solution workbooks use the format of the exogenous data workbook with one sheet per time period. The solution numbers appear exactly as the model numbers with cells containing values generated by equations being colored yellow. Just as you can know the contents of a model cell by its color, you can know the source of a solution workbook cell value by its color.
