This chapter covers how to register a new delivery project in a specific project site. A delivery project must first exist as a project in IFS/Project.
Before taking the lesson in this chapter, you should have basic knowledge about how to work with IFS Applications. It would also be useful to have knowledge about the basic functionality in IFS/Project.
The estimated time to complete this chapter is 20 minutes.
This chapter is designed primarily for project managers.
This chapter covers how to create a project product structure, beginning with the creation of the project items as engineering parts in IFS/PDM–Configuration and then building the structure in IFS/Project Delivery. The structure can be project specific or a combination of standard planned and project-specific parts, which can also be copied from an existing delivery project.
Before taking the lesson in this chapter, you should have basic knowledge about how to work with IFS Applications. It would also be useful to have knowledge about the basic functionality in IFS/PDM–Configuration.
The estimated time to complete this chapter is one and a half hours.
This chapter is designed primarily for design engineers and project members.
This chapter covers how to connect requirement activities to project-specific items in the project product structure. The activity defines the demand planning for project-specific items given by the activity's early finish date.

The estimated time to complete this chapter is 20 minutes.
This chapter is designed primarily for project managers and project members.
This chapter covers how to approve the project product structure, beginning with calculating the characteristics of project items with connected characteristics. Project roll-up cost calculations can then be performed for all the project items. Finally, the part definition of these items can be approved. The project item status can be redefined and then redesigned, if necessary, for example, because of changes to the project product structure.
Before taking the lessons in this chapter, you should have a basic knowledge of how to work with IFS Applications. It would also be useful to have knowledge about the basic functionality in IFS/Part Catalog, IFS/Costing, IFS/PDM–Configuration, and Project Cost Element functionality.
