Footprint
Next data required for strategic projects refer to locations. In workflow tab Footprint select
Customer Delivery location

If not available in database - default is exWorks/FCA
Location can be changed whenever it is required!
Own Production location
Own Development location (optional)

Project dates
To handle projects in reports and other modules some basic project data are required (marked with *), others are optional.

Volumes
Volumes influence all Reports and other Digital Automotive modules as they are base for calculations (e.g. part price amortization, delta costs and prices in change management,...)
Volumes table is excel based and can handle copy/past and excel functionalities. Basically volumes can be edited on an
annual or monthly base and listed in fiscal vs. calendar year
Volume type | Strategy | Acquisition | Booked | Updated by | save to related |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Planned | X | X | User | optional | |
Actual/ | X (take over from planned) | User | optional | ||
Budget | X | X | X | User | NO |
Contracted | hidden | X | X | User | NO |
IHS | X | X | X | System | NO |
IHS volumes are taken over from market module and. are automatically updated (validity date shown in IHS line) if new data are uploaded to market (only if link is not broken)

Prices & Turnover
Same data handling logic as for volumes!
Type in Start price for project (SOP month/year) and define
annual LTA (always based on January of selected year)
Price and reductions are calculated until another price is set in another period!
Effective Price is base for turnover calculation in reports.
Project currency
Impact: As all reports are shown in company basic currency EUR - total value of project turnover will be calculated based on EZB exchange rate EUR to selected project currency!
