Use the Time Now field on the Details pane Status tab to change Time Now and update activity progress. - Cleansing and Resolving Flaws in a Schedule
Use the Schedule Cleanser to cleanse and resolve flaws in a Microsoft Project or Primavera P6 schedule. - Cost Estimates
You can create a new cost estimate directly within Acumen Risk in order to perform a cost risk analysis. - Display Units
Workbook duration and work data can be displayed in either days or hours. - Filtering Activities
You can create filters for the Activities View and SmartGantt using metrics or during forensic analysis. - Filtering Project Data Prior to Import
When importing project data, you can use the command to filter the type of information that is imported into your Acumen workbook. - Importing Cost Data
Acumen allows you to import cost data from a Deltek Cobra data file, a .cvs file, and/or Work Authorization Document (WAD). - Importing External Activities
Use the Import External Activities field to specify whether or not Acumen imports external activities. - Importing Project Data
You can choose to import all data in a workbook, or only certain projects. - Include/Exclude Projects from Analysis
While an Acumen workbook can contain an unlimited number of projects and snapshots, you can control which of these projects/snapshots get included in analysis. - Milestones
If your scheduling tool differentiates between start and finish milestones, then when you import a project, Acumen maintains that differentiation for metric analysis. - Project and Snapshot Links
Links within a workbook to data sources can either be projects or snapshots. A project can contain one or more snapshots and a workbook can contain one or more projects. - Scenarios
Scenarios are very similar to snapshots and are schedules created directly within Acumen. - SmartGantt Chart
In the Activity view, on the right side of the S1 // Projects tab screen, the project displays as a Gantt chart, called a SmartGantt.
