Cash Flow Configuration

In Cash Flow Configuration tab you can specify:

Which cash flow curve types are used to send data to Oracle Primavera Cloud and whether the cash flow curve data can be sent by Capital or Expense breakdowns.
Which cash flow curve types are used to receive data from Oracle Primavera Cloud and whether the cash flow curve data can be received by Capital or Expense breakdowns.

The Cash Flow Configuration tab has the following blocks:

Project data sources to send data to Primavera Cloud
Project data sources to receive data from Primavera Cloud

Project data sources to send data to Oracle Primavera Cloud

In this block, you can set the data for the sources that are going to be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud, by the Unifier Essentials Project Manager.

Note: You cannot use the same cash flow name in more than one project data source to send data to Oracle Primavera Cloud.

The sources that the system uses to send data to Oracle Primavera Cloud project cash flows are:

Planned Budget

This drop-down list contains all of the data sources with cash flow curve type as Baseline or Derived.

You can select the Baseline cash flow curve type data, or Derived cash flow curve type data, to be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud cash flow as Planned Budget.

The Baseline cash flow curve type data from By Project/Shell, By CBS, and By Summary CBS detail-level curves will be sent (pushed) to the Oracle Primavera Cloud project cash flows based on their cash flow configurations.

If Unifier Essentials is sending CBS type cash flow data, or Summary CBS type cash flow data, then the cash flow curve type data can be split into the Capital and Expense type breakdowns.

Forecast

This drop-down list contains all of the data sources with cash flow curve type as Forecast or Derived.

You can select the Forecast cash flow curve type data, or Derived cash flow curve type data, to be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud cash flow as Forecast.

The Forecast cash flow curve type data from By Project/Shell, By CBS, and By Summary CBS detail-level curves will be sent (pushed) to the Oracle Primavera Cloud project cash flows.

When the Forecast is set to begin at the end of the Actuals, and the Actuals has replaced the Forecast data until the current period, then the Forecast data along with the Actuals data will be sent (pushed) to the Oracle Primavera Cloud project cash flows.

If Unifier Essentials is sending CBS type cash flow data, or Summary CBS type cash flow data, then the cash flow curve type data can be split into the Capital and Expense type breakdowns.

Actuals

This drop-down list contains all of the data sources with cash flow curve type as Spend or Derived.

You can select the Spend cash flow curve type data, or Derived cash flow curve type data, to be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud cash flow as Actuals. The Derived cash flow curve type data is based on the Actuals cash flow curve type data.

If Unifier Essentials is sending CBS type cash flow data, or Summary CBS type cash flow data, then the cash flow curve type data can be split into the Capital and Expense type breakdowns.

The following curve data is sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud for each curve type that is selected in the cash flow configuration:

From Date: The earliest From Date for each curve (Baseline, Forecast, and Actuals) from all defined cash flow curves (except the by commitment curves), in the log.
To Date: The latest To Date for each curve (Baseline, Forecast, and Actuals) from all defined cash flow curves (except the by commitment curves), in the log.
Distributed cost data by period.
Total

If there are multiple CBS curves defined, and they have Baseline curves defined for all of them, then the earliest and the latest dates across the Baseline curves will be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud.

Note: The cash flow curve data, based on financial periods, will not be sent to Oracle Primavera Cloud in this release. The Cash Flow By Commitment curves will be ignored if they are defined in the cash flow log, for selected shells. If cash flow curve is defined by year, then that cash flow data will also be ignored.

Project data sources to receive data from Oracle Primavera Cloud

You can set the cash flow data sources to receive data from Oracle Primavera Cloud (proposed or approved).

The Portfolio Budget data can be sent from Oracle Primavera Cloud through one of these levels:

Capital or Expense breakdown level
Total row level

The fields in this block let you select the data sources which can receive the Portfolio Budget cash flow curve data that can be sent from Oracle Primavera Cloud, based on these levels, and each level is identified in this block as follows:

Capital

Proposed Portfolio Budget by Capital

This drop-down list contains all of the Portfolio Budget cash flow curve types or Derived cash flow curve types that are being used to receive data from Oracle Primavera Cloud Proposed Portfolio Budget by Capital breakdown, as the label of the drop-down field indicates.

You can select one of the listed Portfolio Budget cash flow curve types, where the budget data received from Oracle Primavera Cloud will be stored. For example, Shared budget by capital or Approved Portfolio by Capital.
