Run the Rolling Wave Process

The rolling wave process splits monthly data into weekly data for future periods and consolidates data in past periods.

You need to advance the calendar and roll the wave at the end of each month. While it is only necessary to roll the wave at month end, it is a good practice to run it each time you advance the calendar.

Rolling wave processing can be done interactively or through the API.

To run the rolling wave process, complete the following steps:
  1. Display the Rolling Wave wizard by taking one of the following actions:
    • In the Status group on the Processes tab, click Rolling Wave.
    • In the Cobra Explorer, select the Projects group bar, right-click the Projects pane, and select Rolling Wave on the shortcut menu.
  2. Use the pages of the Rolling Wave wizard to collapse past periods or expand future periods of the calendar for a selected project.
