Manage Burden Templates
Use this screen to create and maintain indirect burdens or overhead allocations to be used with both baseline and workplan budgets.
Each project budget must have an assigned burden template; the baseline and workplan budget for the same project can have different burden templates. Assign burden templates to the budgets on the Info tab of the Manage Project Budgets and ETC screen.
You can modify templates even after they are linked to a project budget.
After editing the template, use the Build Budget Composite Rates screen to rebuild project data tables.
You can override the composite burden rate within each project budget subtask on an individual row. If you modify the Composite Rate on a row on the Direct subtask or the Labor subtask of the Manage Project Budgets and ETC screen, the total in the Indirect subtask does not match the total of all the burden amounts on the Direct or the Labor subtasks.
Use this screen when initializing Costpoint Advanced Project Budgeting or when you need to add a new burden template before creating a new project budget.
