Organizational Assignments in the Project System 

Use

The following gives you an overview of the organizational assignments in the project definition, WBS elements, network headers, network activities (and activity elements), and material components. The table shows the dependencies which exist between individual organizational units, where the default values come from, and whether and under what circumstances values can be changed.

The WBS elements belonging to a project definition, along with assigned networks and network activities, must be assigned to the controlling area for the project definition. In the same way, network activities and subnetworks must be assigned to the controlling area in the header for the network to which they belong. The company code(s) and business area in the WBS elements, networks, and network activities must be in the controlling area for the project definition and/or network header.

Project Definition

The values for the project definition are copy from the template or project profile when you create a work breakdown structure. If you create a work breakdown structure using a template but enter a project profile different from the one in the template, you can choose whether to adopt the default values from the template or those from the project profile.

If you make later changes to the project profile, the changes have no effect on the values taken from the project profile and inserted into existing project definitions.
