Initiating the estimate to complete process

As a program manager, you can allow the functional organization to adjust the estimates for all future tasks in the schedule. The leaders of the functional organization can then update the estimates, following the estimate to complete (ETC) process. If, as a functional organization user, you choose to update the estimate for a work package, you must manually revise it before entering the new estimate. If a new estimate is entered for the work package, you must send it through the review and approval process.

The IPP&E solution provides the IPPE FWP ETC Initiation Process sample workflow.

The system notifies the FWP leads of ETC process initiation and also changes the Is ETC Process attribute value to True for the WBS root.
