our organization needs all the things to happen at project level means at the very top wbs level only. The lower level wbs and networks are only for reporting, informational, tracking, monitoring dates etc. purposes.
Our business requirements is that everything will be at project level; nothing will be at activity level or lower level wbs elements. all the materials will be assigned at the top wbs only and all the costs have to be at the top level; nothing at lower level.
thats why i need to make cost element field optional.
If u want all the cost to be at top level WBS...use network header assigned activity and create one network under top level WBS element and assign the activities of that network to lower level WBS element..so that all the cost will be collected at Network header level and the top WBS will collect cost from that network. The lower level WBS element will not have any cost.
I think you cant have external activity w/o cost element. Cost element is a means for posting in CO. So for all PS objects cost element is directly or indirectly derived. For eg in case of internal activity, work center-cost center combination has cost element link. For cost activity we enter element directly. So you may not be able to make it optional, what is your businees requirement?
