| # Top Down Budget Data (tpptc5510m000) Use this session to display budgeted amounts by activity for the selected top down budget-version and project. Because ERP LN works with a derived-from version structure, the data can come from an older (most recent) version. Related topics To use a top down budget To use a time-phased budget To create a time phased budget analysis code Current Version The current budget version, the version you work in at the moment for which you maintain the activity budgeted amounts. To change the current version, use the Change Current Version command in the Specific menu. Current Version The status of the version. Activity The smallest part of the activity structure used for a time-scaled budget. An entity that is used to represent a part of a project in an activity structure. ERP LN distinguishes the following activity types: WBS Element Project Cost Account Work Package Planning Package Milestone Version The line version, which means the version this line is created in. Registration Date The date of registration of the budgeted amounts in the version. You can add one record per day per activity. You can enter a date before the start date, because you may not know on what date the version becomes active. Budget Status The status of the top down budget version. Currency The currency of the budgeted amount of the activity. The currency rate is based on the budget time of the current version. Budget Amount The activity budget amount. Distributed Budget The top-down budget part that is distributed across the activities. You can look at a distributed budget on various levels: For activities: the distributed budget equals the budget that is already distributed to the lower level activities. For the version: the distributed budget equals the budget assigned to the top activity of the activity structure. This can at most be equal to the sum of the contract amount minus profit fee minus management reserve Undistributed Budget The undistributed budget is the budget amount minus the distributed budget. |
