Welcome to Runway

Before diving deeper into the documentation, it’s helpful to get familiar with key terms you'll encounter throughout the product and when working with your CXM.

Glossary

Drivers are the core building blocks of your model in Runway. They represent timeseries data, allowing you to define, interpret, and connect different parts of your model to track business performance over time.

Drivers basics

The driver details pane gives a comprehensive overview and editing options for your drivers. 

Details pane

When working in a model, you might find yourself asking: What contributes to this line? Where does this number come from? Drill-ins (currently in beta) allow you to explore these relationships, showing exactly how your numbers connect throughout your model.

Drill-ins

Drivers in Runway can be formatted to display values exactly as you expect. This guide provides an overview of the different types of formatting and available options.

Formatting drivers

Whether you're experimenting with variations, cleaning up a table, or permanently removing data, this article covers everything you need to know about duplicating, removing, and deleting drivers in Runway—and when to use each option.

Duplicating, removing & deleting

Dimensions are a data type in Runway—just like numbers or dates. You use dimensions to categorize data.

Dimensions basics

One of the most powerful uses of dimensions is segmenting your drivers. For example, you might have an Amount driver segmented by both Account and Class, and another version rolled up by just Account.

Segmenting drivers

Databases store your raw data and help you organize it. 

Databases basics

When working with a database in Runway, you often need to adjust how data is displayed to focus on what matters most. Whether you're filtering specific rows, sorting for better readability, grouping relevant items, or adjusting the date range, Runway provides powerful tools to help you tailor your view.

Filtering, sorting & grouping

As you work with databases in Runway, you may need to rename, export, or delete them to keep your workspace organized and up to date. 

Rename, export & delete

This article covers how to manage driver formulas in databases to support scalable, dimensional modeling in Runway. 

Formulas in databases

HRIS data is essential for modeling personnel-related expenses—often the largest cost for most businesses. In Runway, HRIS data behaves differently from other data sources, particularly when using the Employees database. This guide outlines key distinctions you should know. 

HRIS databases

Models in Runway are structured tables where each row represents a driver, allowing you to aggregate data, input assumptions, and build logic across drivers. While many of their capabilities overlap with driver table blocks on pages, models offer unique features like driver grouping and expanding drivers by dimension.

Models basics

Driver grouping in models allows you to organize related drivers into collapsible sections for better structure and readability. You can also reference grouped drivers elsewhere in Runway.

Driver grouping

As you work with models in Runway, you may need to rename, export, or delete them to keep your data organized and up to date.

Pages are a flexible and fully customizable canvas where you can bring different elements from across your model together in one place. Whether you're creating an investor report or collaborating with department heads, pages are the perfect tool for the job.

Pages basics

Blocks are the building blocks of pages in Runway. They allow you to bring together different parts of your model on a single page, helping you visualize data, tell a story, and collaborate more effectively. In this article, we’ll focus on one of the most commonly used block types: Driver charts.

Charts block

Similar to chart blocks, driver table blocks let you bring in drivers from across Runway onto a single page—but instead of visualizing them as charts, they are displayed in a table format.

Drivers table block

Another widely used block type in Runway is the database block. Databases are where most of your modeling and data lives in Runway. A database block lets you bring those databases—or specific filtered slices of them—into pages, so you can layer in context from across your model for clearer storytelling and easier collaboration.

Databases block

In addition to chart blocks, driver table blocks, and database blocks, which let you bring different parts of your model together on a single page, you can also use text, image, and video blocks to add context and strengthen the narrative of your page.

Text & media block

Formulas are the backbone of your model in Runway. They define the logic behind every driver and are essential for simulating how your business will evolve over time.

Formulas basics

Formulas syntax

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of all available functions and operators in the system.

Functions & operators

Last close in Runway is a global, manually adjusted setting that determines the cutoff between actuals and forecasts across your entire workspace.

Last close

Think of each scenario as a parallel version of your model—a sandbox where you can experiment with different assumptions, plans, and formulas. If you want to see the impact of doubling your marketing budget on your metrics—or compare different launch timelines—scenarios let you do that.

Scenarios

Plans are exactly what they sound like—your plans for the future. In Runway, they connect strategic initiatives directly to your model, making it easy to understand how your sales, marketing, and operational decisions impact key metrics. Plans help you see how each change shifts your numbers.

Plans

The sidebar hosts all your databases, models, and pages. As your workspace grows, keeping it organized makes it easier to skim through and find what you need.

Writing SQL in Runway

Lookups—also known as mapping tables—work similarly to Excel’s VLOOKUP, allowing you to assign or insert a dimension in one database based on how it corresponds to a dimension in another.

Lookups

When working with multiple entities or subsidiaries across different regions, you often need to consolidate financial data into a single reporting currency. Runway makes this possible by allowing you to convert values denominated in different currencies into one unified currency.

FX rate 

This guide walks through several ways to model seasonality in Runway, depending on where it occurs in your business.

Seasonal forecasting

Not all systems store data as time series. But in Runway, your model lives over time. So when source data is sparse—reported only once or sporadically—Runway gives you a way to pull it forward.

Propagating sparse data

Headcount planning is one of the most common workflows in Runway. Whether you’re building simple department-level rollups or more detailed, per-employee allocations, the process can be tailored to fit your company’s needs.

Headcount planning

Use Runway’s date math functions to model prorated salaries for employees who start or leave mid-month with precision.

Prorated salaries

This guide walks through how to build and apply quota attainment models in Runway. 

Quota attainment 

Cohort modeling helps you track and forecast how groups behave over time—whether it’s seat growth, usage patterns, retention, revenue contribution, or churn.

Cohorts modeling

Compare your planned budget with actuals—so you can track accuracy, spot trends, and refine future forecasts.

Budget vs. actuals

Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)  require that businesses recognize revenue when it’s earned (accrual accounting) rather than when payment is received (cash accounting). This article explains how to build a revenue recognition model in Runway for recurring contracts.

You can add users to your Runway organization in two ways: via the Settings menu or from the Share menu on a specific page, model, or database.Description of your new file.

Adding users

Collaboration is central to how teams use Runway. Some customers give their entire company access to portions of their model, while others use Runway for external collaboration with investors and board members. To support these varied use cases, Runway offers four user roles with different levels of access.

Permissions

Runway is designed to foster collaboration between finance teams and the broader organization. However, collaboration doesn’t mean exposing sensitive information—like salaries—to everyone.
