When you make a change to a project structure, you invoke the Process Updates action to perform the rollup of plan and actual data against the updated structure, recalculate task weighting, and update planning elements for budgeting and forecasting. This process updates planning elements for budgeting and forecasting at the project level, and for all plan types and working versions.
Structure changes can result from the following structure maintenance activities:
Task creation
Task deletion
Task hierarchy reorganization
Change of task schedule dates when the progress rollup method is Duration.
If the profile option PA: Process Structure Updates is set to Standard and the total number of tasks in the structure exceeds the threshold set in the profile option PA: Process Structure Updates Threshold, then Oracle Projects automatically submits this process to perform the structure updates when you invoke the Process Updates action.
Note: When you invoke the Process Updates action for an updated program structure, Oracle Projects automatically submits this process to roll up and recalculate information for the linked projects within the program. For more information about programs, see: Overview of Program Management.
For more information on the profile options PA: Process Structure Updates and PA: Process Structure Updates Threshold, see: Profile Options and Profile Option Categories Overview, Oracle Projects Implementation Guide.
