WBS/OBS Codes Page of the Cost Data Wizard
Use this page to select the WBS and OBS code assignments to be exported.
Note:
- This page displays only if you select DOE PARS on the Project and Format page.
- If there is narrative information mapped to the WBS code file, the narrative values will also be exported and included in the generated DOE PARS file.
- Each WBS field needs to be mapped to a unique code field. If not, Cobra will display a validation message.
- WBS and OBS records with blank PARS IDs will not be exported or included in the DS01 and DS02 JSON files. However, if a parent element has no PARS ID but its children have PARS IDs, both the parent and children will be exported or included in the DS01 and DS02 JSON files. A single warning message will be created in the process log if multiple WBS or OBS records are missing PARS IDs.
- When a control account or work package uses a WBS or OBS that has a blank PARS ID, it will not be exported in the DS03 JSON file. In addition, if a parent element with a blank PARS ID is included in the DS01 or DS02 JSON file because its children have valid PARS IDs, and the parent element is used in the CAWP project data, the parent element will still not be exported or included in the DS03 JSON file.
