General Control Data

PeopleSoft Program Management control data consists of optional information—releases, applications, application areas, and categories—that you can use to further classify new programs, projects, or project requests. Applications identify a module or specialty within a software product. Application areas group similar applications together. Categories further classify a project or project request. For example, you can use categories to identify strategic projects from operational ones.

Control data also consists of setup information required to create new issues and risks.
