Hi all, So we are still using Sciforma's PS8 to do out detailed planning for manpower and expenses. We are also using SAP Business By design, but imo its a totally useless Tool to do Project Management. It cannot od material/expense forecasting, but only Resource forecasting...

So what I do on on the 1st week of every new month, I manually input actual costs incurred on each Project (60 Projects), so that I can do my Manpower loading/planning as well ans my IFRS15 Cost To Cost Revenue Planning based on my forecasted cash out (In progress Purchase Orders mainly).

I was wondering if anyone out there might  be ale ot help me figure out hoe to import actual costs into PS8. I hear you can do it via a TXT, XML or MDB.

But I'm clueless. Please help!
