Are project periods supported? |
Yes periods are supported and period
length is user definable on a project by project basis
and a period by period basis |
Can estimates be uploaded? |
Estimates can be uploaded however
normally estimates are not in a budget format.
Once the estimates have been put in budget format they
can be uploaded into Core Project Control from an Excel
file format. |
Is the system transaction based? |
Yes, all transactions (commitments, timesheets, payments,
etc.) which require
approval are transaction based (similar to a bank
transaction). Any changes required are done by
adjusting transactions and have the current period
number attached to them to provide an audit trail and
ensure changes are not made to a previous period (which
would invalidate previously issued reports).
|
Why do you say the system is
bi-lingual? |
Core Project Control can be in any
language but, in addition, it can produce reports for a
given project in two languages. This is a feature
for companies that have clients that use a language
different than the company language or for operating in
a country where local purchase orders should be in a
second language. |
Are there monitory levels of
authority for transactions? |
User definable monitory levels of
authority for transaction approval are available. |
How many WBS levels are there? |
There are 5 corporate levels and a
maximum of 8 levels within a project for a total of 13
levels. |
Is payroll included? |
We don't provide payroll because
there are so many jurisdictions and rules often change
on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis. We do
however off custom programming to integrate Core Time to
payroll systems at additional cost. |
How does scheduling work? |
Core Project Control and the
scheduling software share the same database so changes
in Core Project Control can be made visible in the
scheduling software and Core Project Control can display
some scheduling information. Scheduling is through
third party software - currently MS Project is supported
but we are working on Primavera. |
