Calculate Actual Activity Costs Batch Mode

You can also perform cost calculations in Batch Mode, allowing you to run cost calculations for multiple projects at one time.

To run cost calculations in Batch Mode, select more than one project from the Details pane of the Open Plan Explorer, and click Cost Calculations. The Cost Calculations [Batch Mode] dialog box displays. Set your options, and click OK.

If a project is closed, Open Plan will open it in Exclusive mode, perform the process, save the changes, and then close the project. If a project cannot be opened in Exclusive mode (because another user has it open in Exclusive or Shared mode), it will be skipped.

If you have a project open when the batch process is run, cost calculations will be performed on the project, but the changes will not be saved and the project will remain open. You must manually save the changes yourself.

Open Plan creates one cost calculations session log, listing the project results in the order in which the projects were processed in the batch.
