Problem during Template based new Project Creation

[Former Member]

Dear Sir,

I have created a Project Mask as TW-X-XXXX-0-0-0 . Subsequently I created a Template TW-X-XX99 also .

For creating a new Project (using CJ20n) with a copy option based upon the Template project , I had given new Project as TW-A-RS10 .

Here in the newly created Project , the various WBS appearing are as TW-A-XX99-1 , TW-A-XX99-2 . However We desire that these WBS must have appeared as TW-A-RS10-1 , TW-A-RS10-2 .

Kindly guide us as what steps we should follow to resolve this problem pl .

Hi.

Try this,

In CJ20N when you are copying the project , once you mention the New project along with the std. project definition.

Below in that screen you have the option of WBS element Overview (F8).

Click on it.

Later you will have an optionr Replace.

Use it.

Complete the check. And Save.

Hope it helps...

Thanks!!!

Try as Nitin has suggested. Try using Mass Change transaction.

Hi,

Has the standard template been created using the same coding mask??

The functionality that you have mentioned should work if the standard template is created using a codiing mask.

If you requried WBS by nameing TW-A-RS10-1 , TW-A-RS10-2 automatically than you should create template with TW-A-RS10 and not with TW-X-XX99. This is standard behaviour other option as you know change it manually.
