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.

I’ve loaded in P6 300 items of the BoQ with the prices the company is charging. Now I can print the S curve with the foreseen incomes.
My chief has asked me to load the cost the company pays for each item of the BoQ.
Considering that I have to use different codes (e.g. item 0001(+)Vs item 0001 (-)), how can I see the S curve of the only (+)/(-) items?
PLS send me a hint if you know how to work it out
Thanks

Mario,

A) Use the BOQ Selling cost-loaded schedule for reporting purposes to Client/Engineer. On this schedule, you can show periodic schedule variance analysis reports, e.g, Planned Value (BCWS) vs. Earned Value (BCWP). If you find it hard doing in P3/P6, you can extract P3/P6 values and do the exercise in Excel (Again!).

BCWS = BAC x Planned % C
BCWP = BAC x Actual % C
BAC = You can use your Contract BOQ as your BAC
SV = BCWP (EV) - BCWS (PV)

B)Copy the schedule in (A) and load periodic actual cost. You can now complete your variance analysis for your internal reporting requirements.

Add to the above:
CV = BCWP (EV) - Actual Cost

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Your are talking about the Cost that is related to the Resources; Raw Material, Manpower and Equipment.

Each resource can have an associated cost with it. You can manage your cost accordingly.

Best Regards,

Samer

Selling Cost vs. Actual Cost? I may suggest not to show it.
