Data Rules

ProgramCost

The ProgramCost table has a compound primary key. That is, the primary key is made up by two fields instead of one; the ProgramCost table primary key fields are PrgID and PrgYear. Table validation checks that the primary key is unique for every record regardless of the letter case in the values. That is, ExampleProgram and examplePROGRAM are seen as the same value.

ProgramCost data should always be submitted as year-to-date total expenditures for each program.

The data rules require both program cost and measure data for every program in the data so the CET will correctly calculate the program and portfolio accomplishments and cost-effectiveness.
