Update the FWP cost table

When you create an FWP from the RAM or by FWP request approval, the system creates a target cost form and a direct cost form for each FWP. It creates the rows in the target cost table for each active cost category and also creates rows for each valid cost element in the direct cost table. Valid cost elements comprise all non OBS controlled cost elements. If the cost element is controlled by the OBS, rows are created only for those work packages that are related to the functional organization of the FWP.

If you add a new cost category or cost element, update the cost forms. The system adds a new row in the target cost table for each new cost category. Likewise, it adds a new row in the direct cost table for each new cost element.

To update a cost table, open the target cost form or direct cost form and then choose Edit → Start Edit.
