Validate Schedule of Work Production

Explanation

This activity is used to validate item lines and details to ensure they meet the mandatory requirements specified in your Schedule of Work Production. The Validate Schedule of Work command checks the availability of Cost/Revenue Elements, Cost Sub Project, Revenue Sub Project, Cost Activity, Revenue Activity, and Cost Type values in your Schedule of Work items or detail lines. The validation criteria are based on the flags for Cost Element Mandatory, Revenue Element Mandatory, Sub Project Mandatory, and Activity Mandatory specified in the Schedule of Work Details section.

If the mandatory values have not been entered, the error text will be added to the Validation Errors field in the Schedule of Work items. You will not be able to perform the Calculate Value function or make status transitions of the respective lines until these validation errors are resolved.

Additionally, if a Cost Element value in your Schedule of Work detail lines is not connected to a Cost Type, a validation warning will be added as an early indicator. Connecting your Cost Element to a Cost Type is necessary only if you want to see cost distribution in the Schedule of Work Summary page.

Prerequisites

• A Schedule of Work Production with item lines and item details must exist.
• Mandatory fields and connections should have been defined to be included in the validation.
• Cost Elements defined on item details should have been connected to a Cost Type.

System Effects

• Validation errors will be updated to Schedule of Work Items and must be resolved to proceed.
• When no validation errors exists, the Schedule of Work  Production is ready to proceed to value calculations and status transitions.
