substitution rule is not working correctly

[Former Member]

Hi PS Gurus,

We have a problem in one of the newly created projects that the substitution rule is not working correctly; the data is not copied to the WBS element Cust. Enhancement tab.

Project 1 is working fine and the data is copied & Project 2 and Project 3 are not getting all the data copied to the WBS element,

In that project profile (substitution rule is given), substitution rule is also maintained

So please help why in one project substitution rule in working & other isnu2019t.

Many Thanks in Advance.

Hi,

Check the prerequisite rule which has been setup for the substitution step. if the project does not satisfy the prequisite, then substitution does not happens.

You said "all the data not copied", so does it mean, that some of the data's are copied ?

Hello Menaka,

Select the WBS element in the project builder.

Cleck on Edit --> Validation Substitution --> Substitution

You will get the list of Substituitions, Double click on the required Substition rule.This action will generate a log, whether substitution has been succesfully caried out or with some error.

Kindly provide us that error log to guide you further.
