Documentation

Definition

This indicator determines whether automatic

requirements grouping takes place on the Grouping WBS element

for the whole project.

• If the indicator is set, the top element of the corresponding work breakdown structure is deemed to be the Grouping WBS element, when you create the project definition. This applies as long as long as you have not copied from a standard WBS, in which other settings have been made.
  

  In this case there can only be one Grouping WBS element for each project definition; in this WBS element the field Grouping WBS element must have the value 1 (Grouping WBS element for all materials).
  

• If the indicator is not set, requirements grouping does not occur automatically.

  In this case, individual WBS elements have to be assigned manually to Grouping WBS elements.

Notes

The indiator is copied as a default value from the project profile. You can change it in the control data of the project definition, when creating a project.

After you have saved the project, you cannot change it any longer.
