Project Resource Forecast/Forecast

[To Project Planning] [To Project Execution] [To Project Conclusion]

Usage

Use this tab to primarily create project resource lines and complete with forecast hours. Once these lines have been created you can then spread the hours, select the Resource Forecast Allocation right mouse button menu option to view the resource forecast allocation per line or view the resource forecast allocation per Resource ID in the Summary tab.

If no snapshot matching has been found, a line with a warning triangle in front of it is added to the forecast, displaying the values that are not forecasted. If you wish to enter an ETC value on these lines a new forecast line with appropriate sub project/activity/Resource Criteria (depending on the required level of matching) from the snapshot line needs to be entered. When this is done the application will match the snapshot line with the new forecasted line and the ETC value can be edited.
