  • 1.  Upload of forecasts

    Posted 11/10/16 10:04 AM

    We need to upload forecasts to our Cost Transparency Project.

     

    Primarily we need to upload:

     

    - Cost budget for cost pools / cost centers

    - Revenue budget for cost pools / cost centers

     

    What kind of format should these datasets have?

    And which master data set should they be linked to?

     

    Regards,

     

    Simon

    If you're using an out-of-the-box Cost Transparency project with few or no modifications to the model structures (Cost, Budget, Forecast, etc.), then you likely want to route the newly uploaded data to Cost Source Master Data table.

     

    Once the data is there, the table's Expense Type column affects which model each row's Amount value enters:

    Expense Type = "OpEx" --> Cost model

    Expense Type = "OpEx Budget" --> Budget model

    Expense Type = "OpEx Forecast" --> Forecast model
