Hi all,
i have a couple quick questions.
ill explain what im after then maybe you could point me in the right direction as to where i am going wrong.........
basically i have a programme set up with fixed costs, resource costs and timescales - everything you would expect. when i come to update my project with actuals i would like to keep the actual activity durations and incurred costs as something completely different.
i want to simply have the activitys and the associated costs as programmed totally seperate to stop it messing up my actuals? does this make sense?
for example - i have site supervision as an activity with 100 man hours spread over three resources. when i update the projects status percent complete to say 50%. 50 man hours has been automatically calculated? - with disregard to what they have actually done - for which i want to input seperately, i want to be able to progress the activity but without the incured cost of hours associated.
i think i have missed a fundamental here when i have set up each of the activities with regards to how i am wanting to record my costs........
hope im making sense
thanks
steve
