Only 1 WBS per grant?

[Former Member]

Hello!

Our site is considering using PS with existing Grants Management.

Is it right that there can only be 1 WBS per grant - in Grant master data.

This seems very restrictive - what if more than one project could be funded by a grant?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Ellen,

We have successfully used multiple WBS Elements and Multiple Internal orders related to a single grant. The budget can be at the overall grant level or sponsored programs can be created for each WBS/IO. Derivation rules must be set up so the same grant is derived for all WBS/IO.

Dear Ellen,

Can you please let me know how can I add WBS elements in the Grant Master?

Thanks.

Christos,

You don't add WBS Elements in the grant master. You can connect them through a derivation rule in either FMDERIVE or GMDERIVE.

Thanks

Hi

Like Shyam said, you can use the GMDERIVE to assign WBS.
