	</Header>
	<GeneralSection><List><ListIntro>The control budget is a derived budget based on the project budget and surcharges. Create this budget with the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1230m000" role="session">Generate Control Data (tpptc1230m000)</GUIRef> session. You can use the control budget as a frozen budget for the following operations:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>Generate planning orders in the PSS module.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Record progress with the PPC module.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Record actual costs in the PPC module.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Generate invoices for customers in the PIN module.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<List><ListIntro>The type of control budget generated is initially determined by the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm6100s000#tppdm600.btco" role="fieldhelp">Control By</Link> field in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm6100s000" role="session">Project (tppdm6100s000)</GUIRef> session.</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>If the leading project budget is based on <Link href="/baanerp/tp/glossary/glossary#Element.tp" role="glossary">elements</Link>, the control budget can be an element budget or an activity budget.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>If the leading project budget is based on <Link href="/baanerp/tp/glossary/glossary#000005" role="glossary">activities</Link>, the control budget must be an activity budget.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<Paragraph>Element budget If the project budget is based on elements, the generated control budget includes only elements for which the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box is selected in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000" role="session">Element (tpptc1100s000)</GUIRef> session. If this check box is cleared, the budget lines of the element are aggregated to the next higher level element for which the check box is selected. If the project budget is based on elements with an activity budget control type the control budget is a combination of two budgets: the leading element control budget and the activity control budget. If you run the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1230m000" role="session">Generate Control Data (tpptc1230m000)</GUIRef> session the two budgets are created and the element budget is copied to the activity budget. In this activity budget you can only change the scheduling data. (You can also copy the element budget to the related activities in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1240m000" role="session">Copy Element Budget to Activity Budget (tpptc1240m000)</GUIRef> session).</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>Budget lines related to elements for which the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box is cleared are aggregated to the next higher level parent element for which the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box is selected. Duplicate budget lines are compressed by element/cost component and extension in the control budget. Any surcharges are computed and the calculated amounts are stored in the control budget.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>Activity budget If the project budget is based on activities, the generated control budget includes all activities that are:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>Part of the active <Link href="/baanerp/tp/glossary/glossary#000059" role="glossary">plan</Link>.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>And have the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pss/tppss2100s000#tppss200.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box selected in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pss/tppss2100s000" role="session">Activities (tppss2100s000)</GUIRef> session. Budget lines related to activities for which the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pss/tppss2100s000#tppss200.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box is cleared are aggregated to the next higher level parent activity for which the <Link href="/baanerp/tp/pss/tppss2100s000#tppss200.cctr" role="fieldhelp">Cost Control</Link> check box is selected. Duplicate budget lines are compressed by activity/cost component and extension in the control budget. Any surcharges are computed and the calculated amounts are stored in the control budget.</ListItem>
