In this step you enter the tolerance limits for availability control.
Availability control can identify budget overruns in a project at an early stage and initiates various actions.
You activate availability control for a certain budget profile. You can specify one or more tolerance limits for each activity group for a budget profile.
Selected actions (warning, warning with mail to person responsible for project, error message) are triggered when these limits are reached.
You must have maintained the appropriate activation type in the budget profile to activate availability control.
Define the tolerance limits for each activity group for the budget profile you are using.
You define the tolerance limit for all activity
groups with activity group ++.
This activity group should make entry easier. You can use it if you do not
want to define a separate tolerance limit for each activity group.
You can also define a limit for a specific
activity group in addition to a tolerance limit which is defined for "all
activity groups".
This additional tolerance limit has priority over the "generally" valid
tolerance limit.
If you have already worked with availability control before Release 3.0C, you must start a conversion program for the availability control tolerance limits. For information about this, refer to the Release Notes for 3.0C.
