Field Description
Labor Target Multiplier This multiplier is used as the basis for evaluation against the Labor EAC multiplier. The multiplier represents how much revenue is anticipated for each labor cost dollar spent on a project. If you are viewing a Vision plan, this field displays the Target Multiplier for Cost on the General tab of Vision > Project Planning. If you are viewing a Navigator plan, this field displays the Target Multiplier that is assigned in Plan Settings.

If the Vision plan's Budget Type is set to Billing, the multiplier is blank.

Calculation: Target Labor Cost Multiplier for the Project

If a project is mapped to multiple Vision plans that have the Include in utilization and project reports option selected, Navigator shows the target multiplier for the plan with the earliest creation date.

Labor EAC Multiplier The estimate-at-completion (EAC) labor cost amount is the cost value of hours worked through today and the remaining planned hours.

Only the EAC cost amounts from plans in utilization are included in the calculation. All Navigator plans are marked to Include in utilization and project reports. Vision plans may or may not be marked as such.

Calculation: Labor EAC Multiplier = (Contract) / (JTD at cost + ETC at cost)

If you are using Vision Multicurrency, all amounts are in the project (cost) currency.

If your firm uses Vision Multicurrency, the currency in use is indicated next to the Billing and Cost options. For example, Billing (USD) displays if you are viewing the plan at billing and in U.S. dollars. The Project Currency is always used when viewing projects and plans at cost. The currency used when viewing projects and plans at billing is determined by a Vision Configuration setting that your system administrator selects. See the Use Project and Billing Currencies online help topic for more information on currencies.
