General - WBS

Purpose

The WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) tab is used to map up to four levels of a firm's WBS to business-friendly names for each of the WBS levels.  The WBS can be assigned to the various tests, samples and activities performed in MetaField.  This WBS data also becomes a field option in all of the data exports in the Utilities module.

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Up to four levels of a WBS can be mapped to a business-friendly name.  If a particular level of the WBS is not used in your firm, you can deactivate the level using the Activate / Deactivate controls on the right side of the WBS grid.  When you map a WBS level to a business-friendly name, that name is displayed as the field name for the various WBS levels when assigning a WBS to a test, sample or activity.
