Each plan
in the data library has a template budget for all activities associated
to the plan: base and option, turnkey and unit-of-measure. Each activity
has a template budget field in the data library - the unit cost for that
activity. Attaching activities to a plan creates the template budget field
for that plan in the data library.
Budget
updates - Keep your template budget updated constantly to reflect up-to-date
contracted cost information. When you start your next project the template
budget will reflect the latest cost information.
