Planning Material Costs 

Use

To get as complete a view as possible of project costs at an early stage, you plan the material costs for components before they are assigned to activities.

The planned values are reduced after assigning the components. This avoids planning material costs twice.

In the meantime you have defined the project owner, to whom you assign all of the WBS elements through mass change.

Prerequisites

Your project T-10### is open in the project builder.
