Consumable/Permanent resource allocation ASTA PowerProject

I do not use Asta Powerproject but suggest as a workaround assigning cost per unit of time to each activity using a cost component, name it as “6N - Tons” for this purpose, then you shall be able to figure out daily consumption.

You can use several such cost components and their codes for same activity; for example formwork activities can include form area and reinforcing steel.  You can use another cost code to track cost expense by total as well as by sub-categories such as labor/materials/equipment/subcontracts/other and then report actual, planned and remaining per desired period.  For cost reports use individual cost codes or cost centers that will include only monetary costs.

We use Consumable Resources named by developer as Materials, we can select materials to be leveled or not to be leveled.

I hope you can adapt this workaround to Asta Power Project.

Good luck.
