@Sukran  - You fiscal period for above screenshot seems to be 20 months

Calculation logic of Total planned cost

Now you manually enter Unit cost and quanitty
Servicenow will automatically calculate Total planned cost as Unit cost*quanitity = 25000*1 = 25000

Calculation logic of Entered cost

Now the on cost plan breakdown's entered cost is calculated as Total Planned cost/Fiscal period (in months)

= 25000/20 = 1250

ts gets updated at at : cost_plan_breakdown table.

Functional cost uses Exchange rate is used to convert entered cost into functional cost. It is obtained from the itfm_fx_rate [budget_reference_rates] table.

Please let me know if this clarifies.

Thank you!

Hello @Rajesh_Singh ,

Even i am facing similar issue.

We have requirement to create Expense line in Project with some conditions. I have implemented same with transform script onStart and it’s working fine.

There is 1 more requirement that End Fiscal period of cost plan should be same as start Fiscal period of that project.

Issue is when Expense line is created with script the End Fiscal period of cost plan is getting updated with current fiscal period.

For example, if start Fiscal period and end Fiscal period of cost plan is “FY23: M01-Jan” before expense line is created with script , it gets update with current fiscal period i.e. “FY24: M03-Mar” after script is completed.

So, when I am trying to update End Fiscal period of cost plan after script is completed it’s not getting updated and not sure why cost plan breakdown is getting break in months till current fiscal period.

Thanks in advance!!
