    • apply the forecast estimated by the reporters and
    • define the functional degree of completion.

Details

  • In the Completed field, the functional degree of completion can be entered.
    • The entered value is compared to the value in the Used field and depending on whether this value is exceeded or fallen below, the Completed field is colored green, yellow, or red.
  • In the Forecast field on task level, there are summarized forecast values on remaining effort (for each task, sum of all resource assignments of the task). This field is preset with a traffic light function and is colored red or green depending on whether the Remaining effort is overrun or undercut by the forecast.
    • When opening the task-resource-assignment, forecasts of individual resources on remaining effort which you have entered in the course of recording hours worked in the Time Recording module will also be visible in the Forecast field. The field is also preset with a traffic light.

      • be entered manually. To do so, the Forecast field must also be cleared manually for future forecasts.

    • In order for the adoption of forecasts to take effect you have to recalculate the schedule (by clicking on the calculation button
      in the toolbar).
    • If Resource Planning with Requests/Approvals is used, the Copy forecasts button will not be available.
