Process
Cobra provides a number of process wizards related to project-wide functions.

- Freeze Forecast
Use the Freeze Forecast process to freeze a forecast and retain historical forecast data for the purpose of comparing actual costs to a forecast in the future. - Top-Down Planning
The Top-Down planning process allows you to change budgeted and forecast costs for selected groups of control accounts or work packages by factoring the hours to meet a total monetary amount. - Recalc
The Recalc process allows you to recalculate all costs without disturbing existing budget spreads. - Respread
The Respread process lets you respread budget costs for an entire project at one time or to respread the budget of an individual code of the project. This is useful when the calendar has been changed. - Reclass
Use the Reclass process to copy an existing class to a different class. - Replan
Cobra uses the Replan utility to remove variances from any ongoing projects. Typically, a project manager replans a project when the budget no longer reflects the work to be performed. - Slip
The Slip process lets you move an entire project or selected control accounts within a project to new dates. - Apportionment
Apportionment is used to create a budget, earned value, and a forecast for work that is based on other work. It has two features: apportionment mapping and apportionment calculation. - Analyze
The Analyze process lets you drill down through any code file assigned to the project, such as the work breakdown structure (WBS) or by control account. This view of project costs highlights variances that exceed the thresholds defined on the code file selected.
