Click this button to modify activities or the dates calculated by your scheduling tool after the scheduler step.
When creating a change request, you have the flexibility to make as changes as needed. The scheduler is responsible for applying these changes to the schedule, especially when the change request type involves adding, editing, or creating activities. During this workflow step, the scheduling system is used to analyze the schedule’s timing and create a change baseline. Subsequently, the Integration Wizard is run to calculate the costs in Cobra. After that step has occurred, you cannot modify the activities without returning to the scheduler to reapply the changes and recalculate the costs. To activate the post-approval step, click the Edit Schedule button.
The Edit Schedule menu option is visible when all of the following are true:
A schedule is attached to the selected project.
The Create, Edit, or Delete Activities option on the Change Details on Form tab of the Workflow Type Configuration form is selected.
There are activities attached to the selected control account.
The workflow status is In-Review.
The review action is not set to None.
The change request is assigned to the person logged in.
Click the Edit Schedule button to enable the following features:
Insert or delete an activity
Edit any fields on the activity record
If you have activities linked to milestones in Cobra and you want to delete a milestone, you must access the milestone on the work package and delete it there. Deleting the activity linked to the milestone will not delete the Cobra milestone. Similarly, if you rename the milestone ID by changing the linked field on the activity after clicking Edit Schedule, you must delete the work package-level milestone that was created by the integration using the incorrect milestone ID.
Click this button to display the Change Log dialog box and view the list of cost and schedule changes including what was added, updated, or deleted by the last user.
Use this option to run apportionment calculations on the sandbox project. After the process runs, if no errors are encountered, PM Compass refreshes the Change Details View with the new results and a message displays informing you that the process completed. If the process encounters errors, a message displays letting you know that there was an error. You can look on the Links tab for details about the error.
When the workflow is complete, the apportionment costs are copied to the live project.
The Calculate Apportionment option is available if you can edit the workflow form, if the workflow includes the Calculate Apportionment step action in Workflow Type Configuration, and if there is a sandbox project. It is disabled when the project on the workflow does not have apportionment mapping defined.
