Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hello,

In my P6 current settings, the actual cost is calculated as Total Units * Rate. The total units are collected from the period units. Is there a way to collect the actual cost from the Period Actual Cost? Say, the actual cost in Jan is 100$, Feb - 150$, I want to see 250$ in the Actual Total Cost, regardless of what units are? What settings do I need to change?

If this question has already been discussed, please refer me to the relevant thread.

Thank you very much.

make sure that 1st you set up your periods. To do this go to the Admin then Financial Periods and set up your periods.

 

then after each update select tools store period performance
