Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000)

Use this session to generate a budget-cost analysis. For a range of projects LN uses the default budget analysis code in the Active Budg Cal. Version field of the Projects (tppdm6100m000) session.

If you specify a single project, you must select the budget-cost analysis version with which the analysis data will be stored. You can maintain this data with the Budget Cost Analysis Versions (tpptc3500m000) session. LN takes the default for the selected analysis code from:

  • The exchange rate type.
  • The effective date.
  • The budget line status values.

Use Budget Line Date check box

The following outline helps you use the Use Budget Line Date check box to your advantage. There are two cases: the exchange rate type of Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000) is not equal to the project exchange rate type of Projects (tppdm6100m000) or the exchange rate type of Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000) is equal to the project exchange rate type. In both cases you can work with a single project selection or with a range of projects.

Note: 

LN displays a message to indicate one of these scenarios:

  • The process is completed successfully.
  • The process is completed with one or more errors.
  • The process is terminated before completion, by an error that is considered fatal or is blocking the process.
  • The process is terminated before completion, using the Stop option in the progress bar.
  • The process is not initiated as no data is available in the selection range.

Field Information

Budget Settings
Process Options

Select the appropriate option:

  • Create Cost Analysis Version

    LN creates a new cost analysis version, overwriting an existing one.

  • Update Cost Analysis Version

    LN updates an existing cost analysis version.
Use Actual Budget Cost Analysis Version

If this check box is selected, actual budget cost analysis version as defined on the project is updated and the value specified in Budget Cost Analysis Version is cleared and disabled.

Note: This checkbox is enabled only if the Process Options is set to Update Cost Analysis Version.
Budget Cost Analysis Version

The budget cost analysis code is used to compare budgets.

Note: This field is enabled only if the Use Actual Budget Cost Analysis Version check box is cleared.
Update Actual Budget Cost Analysis Version

If this check box is selected, the specified cost analysis version is updated as the actual cost analysis version and replaces any previous cost analysis version defined for the selected project. If this check box is cleared, the existing specified cost analysis version is only updated with the latest generated data but the existing actual cost analysis version defined for the project does not change.

Note: This check box is enabled only if the Use Actual Budget Cost Analysis Version check box is cleared.
Plan

The code that uniquely identifies the plan. It is only applicable if the actual budget is based on activities.

Exchange Rate Type Budget

The exchange-rate type can be changed if you analyze a single project. If you want to analyze more than one project LN takes the exchange rate type of each project analysis code.

Use Budget Line Date

If this check box is selected, and the rate type of the Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000) session is the same as the exchange rate type of the project (default) budget cost analysis code, the rate and rate factor of the budget lines are used for the budget amount calculation. In any other case, the budget date or the effective date and the rate of the Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000) are used to calculate amounts. The exceptions to this rule are mentioned in the session help of Generate Budget Cost Analysis (tpptc3200m000).

Rate Date

The date used for determining the correct currency rate of the exchange rate type. It defaults from the session Budget Cost Analysis Versions (tpptc3500m000).

Extensions

If this check box is selected, extensions are included in the budget-cost analysis calculation.

Include Costs from
Budget with Status Free

If this check box is selected, budget lines with the status Free are included in the budget-cost analysis.
