SAP projects and PSP elements
For projects outside the basic order, which are usually time-limited - such as research projects, internal projects, major events, etc. - you need an SAP project with WBS element(s). - you need an SAP project with WBS element(s). The financial processing of the project is carried out via the PSP element.
The SAP project technically forms the ‘header’ for one or more PSP elements. Several PSP elements can be assigned to a project, for example, if several donors are involved (example: Innosuisse) or in the case of project co-operations in which several units of ETH Zurich are involved (example in the graphic below: 1 PSP per sub-project, distributed across different areas of responsibility).
To grant authorisations for projects and WBS elements, see Financial authorisations.
