Assigning an Order to a Project 

1. Select the order in change mode.

2. Choose the Detail data tab page.

3. Enter the WBS element or the network operation to which you want to assign the order, and choose Continue.

The system displays a dialog box.

4. How you proceed now depends on your requirements:

- If you have only entered a WBS element, you can decide whether or not you want to copy the WBS element dates for the order.

· If you copy the project dates, the system changes the order basic dates in the section Dates into the project basic dates.

· If you do not copy the project dates, the original order dates remain decisive for scheduling.

- If you have entered a network operation, the system automatically copies the dates, and you can also copy the WBS element, profit center, business area and priority from the network operation into the order.

In the Project System, you can update changed dates in the order using Copy project dates. This function is also available in the selection function for orders (list editing), so that you can update dates from several orders in one operation.
  1. When you want to schedule the order, return to the header data screen and choose Order ® Functions ® Dates ® Schedule.
  2. If the system is unable to schedule the order, you can display the reason in a log. To do this, choose Goto ® Logs ® Scheduling.
  3. Save the order.
