What is the Purpose of ‘Rollover’?
The Rollover function in Camms.Strategy is typically used when an organisation;
- Makes significant changes to the structure and content of the strategic plan.
- Makes significant changes to the organisational structure.
- Chooses to close out and archive the corporate business/operational action plan for the given period – typically a financial or calendar year.
The Rollover feature offers the following benefits to its user;
- Strategic and business plan restructuring for the next period can be kept separate from the planning structure and progress reporting in the current period.
- The ability to create and access archived planning/budgeting periods without impacting the continuity of KPI data.
The Rollover Process
The Rollover is undertaken by the organisation’s Camms.Strategy System Administrator. It is common in the first instance of a Rollover to involve experience from the Camms Customer Support Team.
There are 2 stages in the Rollover process:
Stage 1
This stage is typically initiated during the review phase of the integrated planning process.

It involves the following aspects:
- Creation of a copy of the data in the ‘Current Period’ and transfer to the ‘Next Period’ which enables the development of new strategic and/or business plans.
- The current progress monitoring and reporting continues in the ‘Current Period’ for all users.
- Access to the ‘Next Period’ can be managed by user permissions.
- The final progress reporting for the existing planning period can be completed prior to Stage 2 of the Rollover.
Stage 2
This stage is undertaken at the end of the ‘Current Period’ once the progress reporting has been completed.

It involves the following aspects:
- Any updates of carryover Action progress information from the ‘Current Period’ to the ‘Next Period’ can be made.
- Archives the ‘Current Period’ information which then, in effect, becomes the ‘Previous Period’ while the ‘Next Period’ now becomes the new ‘Current Period’.
- When Stage 2 is completed, at the next login, Users will be in the new ‘Current Period’.
- All previous periods can be viewed via the archived period’s menu.
