  3. Complete the fields on the form.

    For a non-phased planning budget, select Calendar Type of ‘None’ from the List of Values. You do not need to select/enter any of the fields that are shown in the red rectangle for a non-phased budget.

    For a period-phased budget, select either the ‘Project Accounting Period’ or ‘Accounting Period’. Depending on which period-phased Calendar Type you select, you will be required to either select a Ledger from General Ledger List of Values or a Business Unit from the Business Unit List of Values. Starting Period and Number of Periods must be specified so that the tool knows how many periods to generate on the sheet.

    1. ‘Include Quantity Periods’

    3. ‘Include Burdened Cost Periods’

      Revenue is not supported for Financial Plan Resource Assignments.

      Each Amount Type/s with a ‘Yes’ value will generate a set of period column headings based on the number of periods on the Settings form.
