Overall Weightage by Cost

Hello Everyone,

Need Help.

I saw a schedule in which the Progress is weighed by Cost.

Each activity under each WBS has a cost. So everytime it is updated the WBS shows the % Planned and % Actual.

Overall it shows % Completed based on Cost.

So how can it be set up ?

Thanks Zoltan,

 

So by this each WBS would have its own weightage and overall WBS would show the total progress Planned and Actual ?
