| # Generate Time Phased Budget (tpptc5200m000) Use this session to generate the budgeted amounts by cost-type (the BCWS) for a selected time phased budget analysis code and version. You can run the session for one or a range of projects. The following details default from Time Phased Budget Analysis Codes by Project (tpptc5120s000), but can be changed in this session: The analysis time and exchange rate type. The method for determining the current version. The permitted baseline status value(s). The calculation of the budgeted costs of work scheduled depends on the earned value method linked to each activity. Note The generated cost amounts also include the non-claimable tax amount. Related topics To use a time-phased budget To create a time phased budget analysis code To use baselines in Project Analysis Code The TP budget analysis code is used to analyse the time phased budget. Exchange Rate Type The code that uniquely identifies the exchange rate type. It defaults from the session Time Phased Budget Analysis Codes by Project (tpptc5120s000). Related topics exchange-rate type Analysis Time The date the planned value is calculated. In conjunction with the Including Status Free check box, this date determines which baseline and version is used in the planned value calculation. It defaults from the Time Phased Budget Analysis Codes by Project (tpptc5120s000) session. The analysis time is used for the determination of both budget version and baseline (if indicated on the form). By comparing the creation date/registration date of a budget version to the analysis time the appropriate budget version is decided upon. Example: Budget version 1: 21/7/2000 Budget version 2: 11/1/2001 Both have status Free. If analysis rime is set to 31/12/2000 budget version 1 will be used, if analysis time is set to 15/1/2001 budget version 2 will be used. (Of course it is always possible to manually selct a version to be used.) In the same way, within a specific version, the appropriate budget amount will be decided upon, by comparing registration date to analysis time. Determine Version The method of determining the current version. It defaults from the Time Phased Budget Analysis Codes by Project (tpptc5120s000) session. Manual: the version is entered directly by the user. By System: the version is selected by LN. If the Including Status Free check box is selected, LN selects the version with the most recent Creation Time. If the check box is not selected, LN selects the version with the most recent Start Time, or, if no such version exists, the most recent Creation Time. Including Status Free If this check box is selected, TP budget versions with status Free are included in the version analysis. Including Status Free If this check box is selected, a baseline with a status of Free can be used in the planned value calculation. Otherwise, only a baseline with a status of Approved can be used. |
