Accessing Actuals

You open the Actuals window from the MPM Menu Manager. When you open the Actuals window, you select the project you want to view and the data to download.

To open the Actuals window, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Menu Manager window, do one of the following:

  2. Select the Projects tab and choose the Actuals icon.

  3. Click File » Projects » Actuals.

MPM displays the Actuals Open dialog box.

  1. Choose a project from the Project drop-down list box.

  2. To select the data to be downloaded, do one or more of the following:

  3. Filter by WBS Leg — Click the check mark box next to the desired WBS Leg(s), using the plus and minus boxes to expand or collapse the legs if necessary.

  4. Filter by WBS Manager — Using the Shift and Ctrl keys, click the particular Manager(s) who are assigned to the WBS elements you want to download.

  5. Filter by WBS Element Type — Select the type(s) of WBS elements you want to download.

  1. To accept the selections and display the Actuals window, click OK.

When the Actuals window opens, the WBS elements you selected are downloaded.

Unlike the WBS window, you cannot download additional data once you click OK, so be sure to download all necessary WBS elements prior to clicking OK.
