Planning Costs

For planners who want to fully utilize Open Plan as an earned value management system, there are a number of features for working with cost information.

These features are as follows:

• You can report on high-level summaries of resource costs based on the resource category or the hierarchy of a resource breakdown structure.
• You can choose which resources to consider in cost calculations.
• You can define escalated and unescalated rates for resources, resource pools, and skills.
