Edit Budget per Period

• In the required yearly tranche, the portfolio budget is entered manually for each cost type group in the Portfolio budget column (Portfolio cost budget field for costs and Portfolio effort budget field for effort).
  • Changes to individual budget positions of the cost type group cause an automatic update of the value in the Costs and Effort sum lines since the values of individual cost/effort type groups are summarized (summed up) to these sum lines.

• In the respective cost type group line, the summarized budget and cost/effort data of all planning objects which are assigned to the portfolio and activated. They serve as a basis for the definition of the portfolio budget.
• The traffic lights on the Abweichung and % deviation fields signalize immediately whether the relevant project budget is overrun (Relevant cost budget or Relevant effort budget) with respect to the portfolio budget (Portfolio cost budget or Portfolio effort budget). Which budget is considered "relevant" depends on the settings of the Relevant project budget in portfolio environment parameter.
  • In order to view the budget data of individual planning objects and activate or deactivate their budgets for summarization to the portfolio, click on the Costs or Effort link in the sum line of the cost or effort area.
    • Depending on the link you click on, you switch to the Cost or Effort variants in the Edit Period module
