| Replan by adjusting entry
|
Select this option to place an adjusting entry in the budget for the current period (status date) for Budget and Earned Value. Budget, Actual Costs, and Earned Value will match cumulatively up to the status date.
If you do not select this option, Cobra will change only those entries that are earlier than the status date (historical).
|
| Allow planned Work Package to be replanned
|
Select this option to allow replanning of work packages that have not been started. If you do not select this option, unchecked work packages with the status of Planned cannot be replanned.
|
| Allow completed Work Package to be replanned
|
Select this option to replan work packages that have a status of Completed. Otherwise, you can only replan incomplete (in-progress or planned) work packages.
|
| Create a new Work Package for replanned Budget/Earned/Actual costs
|
Select this option to create a new work package for replanned Budget/Earned Value /Actual Costs during replanning.
|
| Alternate class for replanned Earned adjustments
|
If you replan a work package, the earned value of the replanned work package is stored in the class specified in this field. Use this option if you want a new class to represent the replanned earned value.
|
| Extend the Work Package finish date when replanning after the baseline finish date
|
Select this option if you have selected the
Replan by adjusting entry option and the status date is after the baseline finish date of the work package. If the status date is after the work package baseline finish date, the work package baseline finish date is changed to the status date. The adjustment of the date ensures that the replanned entry is within the work package dates.

Selecting this check box for any of the options makes the option selected by default in the process wizard where it is located.
|
| Secure
|
Selecting this check box for any of the options prevents users from changing the setting for that particular option in process wizards where these options are also located. Cobra uses this feature to secure certain options while users run processes against projects.
If the
Secure check box is selected, this option cannot be modified on the options pages of the Cobra process wizards. Select this option to ensure that all users are using the same settings when running Cobra processes.
