Displaying Plan Costs for Orders for Projects in the Cost Information System 

The table below illustrates how the costs for a WBS element are represented in the cost information system. The plan costs and assigned values for the WBS element change, depending on what you have entered in the Project System implementation guide. In the example, the WBS element already has a planned value of $100,000 and an assigned value of $30,000.
