Migrate financial baselines of demands to Next Experience

Migrate the financial baselines of demands to Next Experience to manage the financial using Project Workspace.

About this task

Next Experience uses new data model which has two new tables Investment Baselines (sn_invst_pln_invst_investment_baseline) and Investment Baseline Header (sn_invst_pln_invst_investment_baseline_header) which are used to capture financial baselines. The financial baselines created for demands in classic experience are not visible in Next Experience. You can migrate the existing baselines from classic to Next Experience as an on-demand activity for the required demands, or as bulk by activating and running a scheduled job.

Baselines view in the Next Experience provides better insights to view and analyze the financial performance of your demands.

Unlike the financial baselines created using Next Experience, the financial baselines created in the Classic UI do not capture the actual expenses along with planned costs as a default behavior. To have relevant information for baselines comparison, the actual costs will be captured as part of the baseline migration using the processed expense lines as of the baseline creation date of the financial baseline.

For detailed information and use cases on using financials in Next Experience, see Managing financials for planning items in Portfolio Planning.

Note:

Migration of financial baselines is not applicable for demands or projects with multi-currency.
