Specifying Valid WBS IDs

Specifying Valid WBS IDs

1. In Reports & Actions, select M.A.P.13 Specify Valid WBS IDs.

• The system default settings assume that you have not established alternate WBS reporting in your accounting system.

• When WBS projects have been established, a formal request to DELTEK support is required if you want all of them to be reflected in the application.

• If you choose to import only selected WBS projects, use MAP13 to designate them.

• If you choose to import all of them, MAP13 will be inactive.

2. Click to open the dialog box.

3. Specify a valid WBS ID in the text box, and click Add.

• The application lets you know the ID was added and a list is created on the left.

Just as a WBS structure can be established in your accounting system and reflected in the system, so can the WBS of a structured proposal be associated with project IDs and reflected in B&P.

4. Click Delete to delete an entry.

5. Click Close to close the dialog box.

A WBS structure in the accounting system is a report specification, so multiple WBS structures can contain the same project/task ID.

• WBS in B&P is not a report specification, but a project reassignment.

• An accounting system project/task ID can only be assigned to one unique WBS, which means that it has only one navigation path.

• B&P reconciles project cost details to associated organization P&L information, so a project ID can be charged in the accounting system must be uniquely reflected in B&P.
