Maintaining Projects

The Projects portal is used to view and maintain projects.

The following zones may appear as part of the portal's Project 360 tab page:

  • Project: This zone offers essential information about the project, including the description, project manager, status, budget, and start and end dates. It also displays a list of attachments associated with the project. Additionally, a View in Map button is available if any project activities can be accessed in the Map Viewer.
  • Hierarchy: This zone provides a tree structure representing the project hierarchy for the current project. The display automatically includes the top-level project down to the current project. If there are 50 or fewer child projects, they will be shown automatically. Additional projects within the project tree can be accessed by manually expanding each project.
  • Cost and Scheduling: This zone presents a graphical representation of the actual costs associated with the current project and sub-projects, compared to the budget of the displayed project. Additionally, it includes a second graph illustrating the displayed project's duration, including the start and end dates, and how these dates relate to the estimated completion date.
  • Cost by Category: This zone provides a breakdown of the current project's and sub-projects' estimated and actual costs by cost category.
  • Reference Summary: This zone presents a graph that illustrates the number of objects referencing the current project and sub-projects. The references for each object are categorized into three groups based on their respective business object lifecycle stages. See Reference Summary Zone for more information.
  • Reference Details: This zone lists the actual objects referencing the current project and sub-projects. Only eight records are shown at a time with pagination enabled to view additional records.
