) icon in the left menu.
Click the **Anticipated Cost** (
) option from the submenu that opens.

## Initial Setup
When you visit this page for the first time, you will be greeted with a setup screen to choose how you want to manage your report:
Choose this option if you want to use a single main report for the project.
Choose this option if you want to create and compare multiple report scenarios for different situations (optimistic, pessimistic, etc.).
You can change this setting later from the **Settings** (
) icon in the top right corner of the page.
