Revenue, Cost, Budgets by Work Breakdown Structure

Use the MGT: Revenue, Cost, Budgets by Work Breakdown Structure report to review the tasks in a project's work breakdown structure and their budgeted and actual revenue, burdened costs, and labor hours. This report displays information for projects that have baselined budgets only. This report always displays project-to-date totals.

By default, this report displays all of a project's top-level tasks and their subtasks in an indented outline format that depicts the task hierarchy of the project's work breakdown structure. However, you can enter values for the report parameters that limit the output to top-level tasks only, to a specific top-level task only, or to one top-level task and all of its subtasks.

For each task selected, this report displays the task's actual and budgeted amounts side by side for easy comparison. It also lists the task's completion date, if one exists.

The top-level tasks have corresponding actual costs shown even though Oracle Projects only allows expenditure charges to a lowest-level task. These figures are a sum of the task's subtask amounts. This report rolls-up the amounts of the lowest-level tasks to each level in the project's work breakdown structure, all the way up to the project level itself. The project-level aggregates display on the last line of the report.

The budget amounts also roll-up. However, budget definition is not restricted to one level in Oracle Projects. The budget amounts in this report, therefore, might not originate from the lowest-level tasks. For example, a report can show budget amounts for the top-level task 1.0, but not for 1.0's subtasks. These figures, then, are not rolled-up amounts of the lowest-level tasks.

For each project listed, this report shows the total amount invoiced, the project's accounts receivable, its unbilled receivables, and its unearned revenue.

Parameters

Although the report parameters are each optional, you must enter a value for at least one of the following in order for this report to return output: Project Organization, Project Manager, or Project Number. Enter any additional parameters to limit the report.

Top Task. Enter the number of the project task from which you want this report to start down the work breakdown structure.
