Define the variables to be used:

• In formulas.
• As scheduled units in work breakdown structures.

You can define variables that differ from the units. But you can also link a variable to a unit.

Standard procedure

1.	Go to Project management and accounting > Setup > Advanced project management > Calculation variables.
2.	Click New.
3.	In the Variable field, type a value.
4.	In the Description field, type a value.

Notes

All variables must have the same length. If you, for example, use three characters for the first variable that you create, all variables must have a length of three characters.
