Apportionment
Apportionment is used to create a budget, earned value, and a forecast for work that is based on other work. It has two features: apportionment mapping and apportionment calculation.
Use apportionment, for example, if you budget IT Support as a percentage of Engineering. Engineering is the source for the apportionment and IT Support is the target.
Once you set up apportionment, use the Calculate Apportionment Wizard to run apportionment calculations to create a budget for the apportioned resource. You can also run the Apportionment process through the API and the Cobra Web Service.
