Functional Principles of Oracle ERP (EBS) - Project Modules

A project is a temporary endeavor with a definite start and end date to create a product, service, or research, transitioning into operations after delivery.

Define operations as ongoing, repetitive activities in a defined pattern to sustain a system and produce products or services. Differentiate projects as unique tasks that are refined to improve efficiency.

Follow the project lifecycle from initiation to closing, compare waterfall, spiral, and agile methods, and balance the triple constraint—scope, schedule, and cost—using earned value analysis.

Identify and define activities within the work breakdown structure, assigning duration and resources to deliverables. Link dependencies to scheduling, baselines, and earned value analysis for monitoring and cost management.

Examine the work breakdown structure and activity relationships such as finish-to-start, start-to-start, finish-to-finish, and start-to-finish, and learn how they drive project scheduling and resource use.

Baseline the project by agreeing on the scope, schedule, and cost with stakeholders, then monitor plan versus actual using earned value analysis and enforce change control for scope changes.

Explore earned value analysis to compare planned value, earned value, and actual cost, and monitor schedule and cost performance against the project baseline using variances and indexes.
