Specify the Analysis Period

The Labor Utilization Analytics display data for projects during your current accounting period, with trending over the current year and the most recent prior year.

You can use the controls across the top of the tab to change the analysis period reflected in the analytics.

If you select an analysis period on the Labor Utilization tab and then go to another tab, Costpoint Analytics automatically selects the same analysis period for those analytics.

Available Fiscal Periods

Your system administrator specifies both the current fiscal period and the number of prior fiscal periods for which data is available. The future fiscal periods for which data is available are the periods for which your administrator loads budget data into Costpoint Analytics. Administrators commonly set up Costpoint Analytics to provide access to two to five years of data.

To select more than one year, do either of the following:
