         <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="formfield">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>

      <Paragraph>If the project budget is
		based on elements, the generated control budget includes only elements for
		which the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="manual">Cost Control</GUIRef> 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.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>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 <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="manual">Cost Control</GUIRef> check box is cleared are aggregated to
		the next higher level parent element for which the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="manual">Cost Control</GUIRef> 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>

      <SectionTitle>Activity budget</SectionTitle>
      <List>
         <ListIntro>If the project budget is based on activities, the generated

         <ListItem>Part of the active <Link href="/baanerp/tp/glossary/glossary#000059" role="glossary">plan</Link>.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>And have the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="manual">Cost Control</GUIRef> check box selected in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pss/tppss2100s000" role="session">Activities (tppss2100s000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
      </List>
      <Paragraph>Budget lines related to activities for which the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/ptc/tpptc1100s000#tpptc100.cctr" role="manual">Cost Control</GUIRef> check box is cleared, are aggregated to

		lines are compressed by activity/cost component and extension in the control
		budget. Any surcharges are computed and the calculated amounts are stored in
