Implementing Project Portfolio Management: From Organization Structure to Recognized Revenue · Module 1 · The PPM Landscape

Offerings, functional areas and navigation

Lesson 10 of 198 · 13 min

Open Setup and Maintenance and show both offerings in the list. Tour the Project Financial Management functional areas, then the Project Execution Management ones. Show the opt-in page and enable a feature. Create an implementation project. Search for a task by name. Tour the work areas — Project Financial Management, Project Costing, Project Billing, Project Management, Resource Management — and show where profile options live, and how to find the one governing a behaviour. Learn task-name search rather than click paths. Paths shift between releases. PROFILE OPTIONS MATTER MORE IN PPM THAN IN THE OTHER COURSES IN THIS FAMILY. A surprising amount of behaviour is governed by them, and they are the least discoverable configuration in the product. Learn the search technique, not a list — that is the transferable skill here. Note where the scheduled processes reference lives; Module 18 builds the operational runbook from it.
