Hello,
I have received and imported an update from a subcontractor which has actual progress for activities. My problem is that their actual material and labor resources are all zero's. We have both shared screen shots and in his schedule he has values for the actual material and labor. I do not have any of those actual resource values that he is showing me. I know that he is sending me the correct file and my resourece settings are as follows.
Labor Resource
Details = Auto Compute Actuals is checked. Calculate costs from Units is checked.
Units & Prices = Price / Unit = $0.00
Material Resource
Details = Auto Compute Actuals is checked. Calculate costs from Units is checked.
Units & Prices = Price / Unit = $1.00
My instinct tells me that the problem was in my Price / Unit. I thought that my Price / Unit would have to match his Price / Unit but I have changed these values and nothing changes after scheduling. My understanding is that he should have all values entered accordingly and send me the file. After importing I SHOULD be seeing the same actual dollars and hours that he has regardless of the Price / Unit settings.
Any help is very much appreciated. I have not seen this problem before.
Thanks,
Brandon
You are Welcome Brandon.
Thanks for the help Raymond. That was an easy fix and lesson learned.
Brandon,
During import go to options of importing new resources instead of update existing which was set as default.
