In contrast to previous releases, revenues can be planned not only by revenue element but also independently of the revenue element.

The functionality and procedure are the same as for WBS cost planning.

In contrast to earlier releases, revenues are planned with positive signs, not negative ones. This applies whether or not the planning is revenue-element dependent.
Plan versions

You can carry out revenue planning in several versions. You can:

• store the versions separately

• change them

You can change the values from structure-oriented revenue planning and planning by revenue element.

• compare them with each other in the Project Information System

• copy them

You can copy the values from structure-oriented revenue planning and planning by revenue element.

You can select

* the planned values to be copied: annual values or overall values

* whether planning data already in the target version is to be kept or overwritten.

This indicator determines whether the bottom-up procedure is to be used in structure-oriented planning.
If you set this indicator, the system automatically totals up the revenue structure planning when you save or check the planning. The plan value in the higher level WBS element comprises the total of the plan values for all the WBS elements directly subordinate to it.

You define the revenue planning parameters in the planning profile.

In the Project System implementation guide, you can stipulate, among other things:

• the fiscal years for which a plan version is valid

• whether a plan version can be changed

• whether a plan version can be copied
