Field Description
Workbook Workbooks are the core files within Acumen. They contain all analysis information. Right-click on the workbook for additional commands.
Project / Snapshot Links to data sources can either be projects or snapshots within a workbook. A project link treats the linked data as a normal project, including all data in workbook summary calculations. A snapshot link is used to flag the project data as being a version of the parent project. Right-click on the project or snapshot for additional commands.
Scenario After you run acceleration, you can add the scenario to your project. The scenario is added to the Projects pane and includes the type of acceleration used and the target date or percentage target.
Activity View The Activity view is the standard view after importing a project. This view displays all activities, grouped hierarchically by Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), along with each activity attribute including start/finish dates, remaining duration, calendar, and activity status.
SmartGantt The Gantt chart view allows you to view metric results, activity progress, uncertainty settings, or modification such as activity acceleration, directly on the schedule.
Details Pane Use the tabs in the Details pane to view and edit project, activity, and WBS information.
