Definition

Indicator, which controls how existing data in the target version is treated.

You have the option of keeping existing planning data in the target version, or of overwriting it.

• keeping the data

  The system checks, whether the project in the target version already contains planning data for the relevant degree of detail. If it does, the data is not overwritten.

  Example 1:
  If version 000 contains rough plan values for 1995 and 1996 and version 001 contains structure plan values for 1995, only the new data - that is, the values for 1996 - is copied.

  Example 2
  There are two plan versions with the following cost element plan values:
  Version 000
  Cost element 400000/1995: $1000 and 415000/1995: $1500
  Version 001:
  Cost element 400000/1995: $2000
  The system copies the plan value for cost element 415000 to version 001.
  

  If planning data ever existed in the target version, but you have reset the value to zero, the database still has a planning data record for this project, with value 0. The system recognizes this data record and does not overwrite it.

• resetting and overwriting

  The system resets all the data in the target version for the relevant planning activity and overwrites it with the planning data from the reference version.
