Hi,

2. Entry: Percentage = 100%, Overwrite option

2. All values is copied from Column Planned Total to column Budget

3. Save

4. Error message:

Item WBS element A-60000 budget exceeded

Message no. BP604

Diagnosis

In document item WBS element A-60000, budget for fiscal year 2008 was exceeded by 2.763,26 EUR.

Hai Long,

For getting BCWS , you should maintain Progress version. DO following in config settings..

1) Project Sys -

---

Progress -

---

Progress analysis -

---

Maintain Progress version.

2) Select Progress version 100 and copy the same and give new name.

3) Go to details.

4) Select option 3 ( if basis for Progress is Budget) 4 ( If it is planned cost) for Earned Value Basis.

5) Select option 2 ( if basis for Progress is Budget) 7 ( If it is planned cost) for POC weighting.

6) Save it.

7) In your project select Progress tab in detail screen of WBSE and Activity and select above Progress version, select select cost propotional ( Or as suitable for ur requirement) plan and actual ( it is adviseable to have plan and actual same always to have clarity in results)

😎 Schedule and see report in CN41N.

Please post your observations

Hi,

Please check whether any Actual or Commitment exists for that WBS in S_ALR_87013533 .

Hi,

Yes, i already confirm some activities and actual cost exist in the report,

What should I do?

Hi,

This means you have already consumed that budget. So now you have to increase the budget amount more than that of the error amount you are getting.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your correct answer,

I assigned budget successfully, but in the Earned Value report, column BCWS is still ZERO,

Please let me know what steps should I do for this

Thanks
