Connect Change Order to Activity
Explanation
Change Orders registered in IFS Change Management can be connected to activities, and vice versa.
Prerequisites
- A project activity and Change Order must exist.
System Effects
- A Change Order is connected to a project activity, and vice versa.
- When Engineering Change Order (ECO) actions are added to a Change Order that has activity connection, the
activity is updated with planned cost and hours (if the Planned Cost Driver is Connected Objects).
- When progress is reported for the ECO actions the earned value and progress are updated on the cost elements
and the progress is updated on the activity (if the Progress Method is Connected Objects).
- Committed, used and actual cost and hours are not reported against the ECO but against other executing
objects connected to the activity.
- Activity Connections will be updated with details of connected change orders.
- Connected change orders can be accessed from the activity.
