  • 1.  Submit and Approve Cost Plan Automation

    Posted May 09, 2011 02:18 PM
    Does anyone have any ideas on how the submittal and approval of a cost plan could be automated? I am manually creating the cost plan via gel within a process but am not sure how to submit the plan then approve it.

    Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Mike.
    I **believe** enhanced ability to automate cost plans via processes is a V13 feature. Does anyone else recall this?

    I'm not saying it can't be done today, I simply have no experience with it, and if my above recollection is correct, there's probably a reason CA's working to put the easy button on this.

    That would be good Rob if it came in 13. After looking at the very large SQL Trace from a submit and approve their is a lot going on to accomplish these button clicks.
