When entering or editing actuals in the right window pane, you are in Edit Mode. In Edit Mode, the text in the current block in both window panes is blue. Choose the row for the appropriate unit of actuals, and the column for the period when those units were accumulated. When a cell is edited, the values you enter are displayed in full precision based on the units for that cell. Negative numbers are normally displayed in red, but when you are in Edit Mode, they are blue.
When you are finished editing the actuals, click to advance to the next Actuals field, or press the tab, up- or down-arrow key.
To delete an actual amount in the right window pane, go to the desired cell and press the Delete key, or click Edit » Delete. MPM clears the amount in the cell.
To delete more than one actual at one time, select the desired elements by clicking and dragging the mouse to highlight the cell(s), or by using the Shift+Ctrl keys when clicking the mouse button, and then press the Delete key, or click Edit » Delete Cells. MPM clears the amount in the cell(s).
To delete an entire resource or EOC block of actuals, highlight any row in the desired block by clicking the row number, and then press the Delete key or click Edit » Delete. MPM removes the entire actuals block.
If you delete one or more actuals cells, MPM prompts to save the changes.
You can revise actuals in one process using the Reprice utility. Repricing is usually performed when there are major modifications to burden templates or rate tables. Using the utility can save a great deal of time over modifying each estimate separately. You can also use the Reprice utility to run 'what if' scenarios against copies of your project. You can easily shift resources and change direct or indirect rates to produce different pricing scenarios.
The fee calculation method selected for a project determines whether fee is generated when using the Reprice utility. Repricing actuals will not generate fee if the WBS option is selected; reprice calculates fee only if the Resource option for fee calculation is selected. For details, see Selecting a Fee Calculation Method.
You should run the Actuals Reprice if the Resource Code or Resource Department has changed for resource actuals, or the EOC code has changed for EOC actuals. For details, see Repricing Data.
