| # Generate Service Orders (tppss6250m000) Use this session to generate service orders and service order activity lines for the labor budget lines. Note You can generate service orders only for the following labor budget lines: Budget lines that have a reference activity linked to them and that are part of the top element or active plan activity structure. Budget lines with a start date lower than the current date + the time fence. For the activity budget lines, if the budget line start date is not specified, the activity start date is used. For element budget lines, the element start date is used. Budget Lines for which control data is generated. Generating control data is mandatory for projects which are budgeted by element and controlled by activity.
