Hi,

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS): -

Definition: - Structure element of the work breakdown structure (WBS). A WBS element describes either a certain task or a partial task that can be subdivided further.

Note: -

According to DIN 69 901, those elements in a work breakdown structure that are not subdivided are referred to as "work packages".

In the Project System, a work package is not a data object. A work package can be represented in the SAP System by a WBS element or an activity.

Purpose: -

The work breakdown structure (WBS) is a model of the project that organizes project tasks into a hierarchy.

- It is the functional basis for further planning steps in a project, for example, for process planning, cost planning, scheduling, capacity planning or costing, as well as project control.

- It gives you a clear picture of the project and facilitates the coordination and implementation of the project from a management standpoint.

- It shows the work involved in a project.
