Contract Link to Project Structure (tpctm0160m000)

Use this session to link contract lines (CLINs) to the project structure (element/activity). You can link multiple contract lines to a project. However, you can link a specific project peg (element/activity) to only one contract line. This session also indicates if unit costs are incurred and revenues booked on the project peg. If the unit costs are incurred and the revenues are booked, it is not possible to delete such a link.

You can use the Import Activities, Import Elements, and Import Costing Breaks options only if you specify a project in the Project field of the contract line.

Note

  • You cannot link a Project to multiple contract lines, if the contract types are different.
  • When cost or revenues are present in cost/revenue history, you cannot modify or delete the link.
  • You can use the Import Costing Breaks option, only if the Costing Breaks check box is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
