 Project Planner

Rapid, effective and engaging

Bring huge efficiencies to the plan-to-budget process
You can input project data directly in the Unit4 Business
World On! Planner module and produce a revenue and
cost budget as a direct output, and because people
planning is blended with project budgeting, there is
total synergy between the two, making the process
extremely simple, accurate and efficient.
Create the best possible project plan through
“what if” scenarios
Unlimited project plans allow you to create multiple
“what if?” scenarios, so you can achieve the
best project plan possible in terms of both cost
management and the quality of the delivered project.
To save time, you can also copy existing plans as the
basis for a new plan.
Synchronize project data for a rapid, integrated
response to change
Delivery plan dates created in Project Planner can
be automatically updated in the Business World On!
Project module’s Project Masterfile. Date validation
in other Business World On! screens that use the
same Work Breakdown Structure, e.g. timesheets
and general ledger, can then be driven from Project
Planner.
Prevent errors and reduce delays through
Project integration
Project Planner works in unity with the Business World
On! Project module, which not only eliminates errors
by controlling who can and can’t post time, but also
enables you to complete your timesheets rapidly, so
that project reporting, forecasting, billing and other
critical processes aren’t delayed.
