| # To create a physical breakdown from a project-breakdown structure You can create a physical breakdown structure by copying from a Project structure with the underlying Element or Activity structure and the material lines of the specific structure. In this process, you can also copy the material lines that underlie any of the elements or activities that are copied. You can create a physical breakdown from a project-breakdown structure in the Copy Project Breakdown Structure (tscfg2210m200) session. In this session, you can create the physical breakdown from: An element structure. An activity structure. Note You can only use this session if Project is implemented. To create a physical breakdown from a project-breakdown structure, take the following steps: Step 1. Project field Enter or select the project. For the entered project, the value of the Project Package Link field in the General Projects (tcmcs0552m000) session, must be Project ( Project). If you use free projects, note that the changes made to the project after you have copied the project, are not processed to Service. Step 2. Origin Structure field Select from: Activity Structure The leading plan is used (refer to the Planning tab in the Project (tppdm6100s000) session). The charge breakdown structure, as displayed in the Activities (tppss2500m000) session, is used as input for the physical breakdown. LN creates a serialized item for each activity. The top element is used as the top-serialized item in the physical breakdown. The serial number of the serialized item is created according to the mask. Element Structure The budget top element is used (refer to the Budget tab in the Project (tppdm6100s000) session). The element structure as displayed in the Element Budget Structure (tpptc1509m000) session is used as input for the physical breakdown. LN creates a serialized item for each element. The top element is used as the top-serialized item in the physical breakdown. The serial number of the serialized item is created according to the mask. Step 3. Cluster field Enter the code of the cluster that the newly-created physical breakdown belongs to. LN creates a cluster line in the Cluster - Lines (tsbsc1110m000) session that specifies the newly-created top-serialized item. Related topics Cluster layout example To define a mask |
