    About this task

    The monetary benefit plan breakdown records are automatically created when you save the benefit plan. The monetary benefit plan breakdown records specify the estimated and actual benefits at a granular level for specific fiscal periods, such as FY16: M04 and FY16: M05. The Monetary Benefit Plan Breakdowns related list shows the aggregated benefits for estimated and actual benefits for each fiscal period for the demand.
    Note:
    Converting a demand to a project or EAP entity transfers the benefit plan from the demand to the target project or EAP entity.

    If you’re creating benefit plan for a demand with the PPM Standard Multicurrency (com.snc.ppm_multicurrency) plugin activated and Demand Currency view enabled, the fields in the Financials section differ from the Default view. For more information about the fields that are available only in the Demand Currency view, see Multicurrency fields in demand-related forms.

    2. Open the required demand form.
    3. Select the Monetary Benefit Plans related list.

      Note:
      When you move the demand dates, the associated benefit plans also change accordingly based on whether the benefit plan is tied to the demand start date, or end date. The project property Change Resource Plan, Cost Plan and Benefit Plan Start Date with Demand or Project Start Date Change controls the behavior for demand date changes.
    6. Select Submit.
