Configuration

CA-PLMGMT · P&L Management

The financial governance basis for P&L, cost allocation, and reporting policy.

Configuration artifact

CA-PLMGMT configures the settled financial governance rules per unit type and lifecycle stage. It is part of the unconditional minimum setup basis because O2A financial views are only meaningful once an organization states how it governs P&L.

How It Works

CA-PLMGMT configures financial governance rules per unit type and per lifecycle stage. Because the rules are lifecycle-sensitive, it requires an effective CA-UNILIF lifecycle basis first — either an explicitly validated CA-UNILIF or the implicit single-stage default. Once validated, it in turn unlocks the conditional shared-services artifact.

Dependency role. CA-PLMGMT is always relevant (active mandatory minimum-set artifact). Its prerequisite is the effective CA-UNILIF lifecycle basis. Once validated, it unlocks CA-SHRSVC when shared service providers exist.

Statements

  • CA-PLMGMT means P&L Management.
  • CA-PLMGMT configures financial governance rules per unit type and lifecycle stage.
  • CA-PLMGMT is a mandatory minimum-set artifact.
  • CA-PLMGMT requires the effective CA-UNILIF lifecycle basis.
  • CA-PLMGMT, once validated, unlocks CA-SHRSVC when shared service providers exist.

Why It Matters

Financial surfaces exist on every Node, but they only mean something against governance rules. CA-PLMGMT supplies those rules, which is why it is mandatory: without a validated P&L governance basis an organization cannot reach operational status.
