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.

Contractor has submitted an updated schedule and the cost data (Budget at Completion or Budgeted Cost) for newly added activities is importing incorrectly. The contractor sent me a screenshot of his activities and I can see the correct costs. Yet when I import the file, the costs reset themselves to either $8 or $40. 

I have received numerous other schedules from this particular contractor in the past and have not had this issue. I have received updatse from other contractors and have not had this issue. It leads me to believe that there is a setting or bug somewhere. The contractor is using version 7.0 and I'm using 8.1. Any suggestions would be helpful.
