Scheduling can be used to derive dates for activities/WBS
elements. Networks are always scheduled forward and backwards.
The scheduling type determines the original direction in which scheduling
takes place. It can be carried out in two ways Top!"own and Bottom!#p
scenarios.
The dates schedule in WBS structure can be copied to the basic dates of the
WBS elements for the purpose of e$trapolating them up the pro%ect hierarchy.

Scheduling uses the 'uantity structure of network activities to derive dates in an
automated way.
Single network schedules all activities of the network. If it is connected to other
networks by relationships( their dates are treated like constraints.
In overall network scheduling( the system schedules all networks connected byrelationships.
WBS scheduling schedules all activities which are assigned to selected
WBS elements.

5ou can use general costs activities to plan all other costs that cannot be mapped via
internally!processed activities or e$ternally!processed/service activities.
In the general costs activity( you can enter a description( the amount and currency( a cost
element( a duration and a distribution key for distributing costs.
The costs are distributed using the network duration for general costs activities.
"istribution is controlled by means of the distribution key for the activity. If no distribution
key is maintained( the costs are distributed evenly over the earliest dates in the activity.
5ou can create a unit cost plan for the general costs activity.
This means that detailed costing is possible even at an early stage of the pro%ect
)for e$ample( for sales pricing*.
The activities which cannot be tracked though internal/e$ternat activities/services can be

5ou can create invoicing plans directly for network activities )e$ternal( service( or general
costs* or components procured e$ternally.
This means that it is possible to plan costs and outgoing payments on the basis of dates
entered in the invoicing plan. 1osts are not simply distributed( but are calculated precisely
at the times specified in the invoicing plan.
5ou can create an invoicing plan by copying a reference invoicing plan.
The reference invoicing plan fi$es cost and payment times relative to a start date.
lternatively( you can copy billing milestones as dates to the invoicing plan of the activity. If
you copy the milestones rather than creating them manually( they can be postponed
along with the dates in the invoicing plan if the activities are rescheduled.

5ou assign orders to the pro%ect either by assigning a WBS element to the order

assignment is re'uired only for cost control and analysis( you need to assign order to

types of versions include simulation versions( pro%ect versions and 1+ planning
versions are available in S, ,ro%ect System which are discussed below.
,ro%ect versions( are snapshots of a pro%ect at a specific point in time( and are
used for documenting the progress of a pro%ect over time. Both 'uantities and
values are stored in versions and it can be created either manually( or
automatically when a status changes. In the case of status change( the pro%ect
profile contains a reference to a version profile which specifies the name of
the pro%ect version to be created when a particular user or system status is
set.

change. 5ou might( for e$ample( create simulation versions in the following
situations
In the 'uotation phase generally speaking( at this stage there is not yet
an operative pro%ect.
To draw up alternative planning scenarios for e$isting operative pro%ects

Simulation versions are useful during the 'uotation phase of a pro%ect

where you can copy from operative to simulation versions( compare( analyAe
and work with other versions and transfer them back to the operative
pro%ect.
When an operative pro%ect is copied to a simulation version or vice versa( a
log file is created which contains the ob%ects that were transferred and any
error messages that were issued in the process.
Simulation versions can be created either for an entire WBS( or for
sub! hierarchies of a WBS.
Simulation versions are edited in the pro%ect planning board or in pro%ectplanning board from S, 2/7 @.D1 release.
