Easy Cost Planning - Multipple Entry Using Same Template

[Former Member]

Team,

Can any one suggest a way to plan 'n' number of materials (same type) in single WBS element using Easy Cost Planning?

Example- for a pipe installation we have various work to be done like Laying, Jointing, Testing etc. We can have separate planning form prepared to collect all the variable values against each work and plan cost in single WBS element using u201Csubdivide cost estimateu201D options.

I couldnu2019t find a way to create multiple pipe type under each work (option is available in case we need to choose one pipe from selection) except to create one WBS element for each pipe type. Is it correct or have any other way out?

Thanksu2026

Hi,

For the same WBS element you can copy the Costing Items (line) in the Item View and change the values in the planning form (template). The system will take the new values for the copied line and hence 'n' number of material cost plan for same WBS element.

We can create cost nodes under WBS element in Easy Cost Planning using 'Subdivide cost estimate' and can use same template multipple time.
