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.

Hi

I would appreciate some help from any of you guys regarding a issue I am having with spreading actual costs (version 6.2.1)

 

I have spread a resource (material @ £1/ea) on a WBS Summary Bar that encompasses the activity bars in question however when I look at the actual cost distribution in resource assignment view some of the actual cost has been lumped on the data date (which is roughly a year after the activities had finished)

There are £0 remaining costs (as the scheme has finished)  - I have made sure that planned finish = actual finish and have checked that I haven't stored period actuals in the future by mistake.

How can I get rid of this "future actual" and ensure the entire actual sum is spread over the Actual dates?

I am unable to edit the spread manually as the values are greyed out.

Any help or pointing in the right direction would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Neil
