Spread Hours Evenly
You can spread hours evenly over the selected period.
(Spread Amount/Total Business Days) * Cell Business Days
The total business days are the number of business days between the start date and the end date that you specify on the Spread Evenly dialog box.
Spreading hour amounts on the Labor, Expenses, or Consultants planning tabs will update the plan's hours on the accordion calendar on all related Planning tabs. If you change a task's duration on the interactive Gantt chart on the Schedule tab, Vision automatically re-spreads the hours evenly across the new duration on the other Planning tabs. Use caution when changing task dates and durations on these tabs, and when spreading data.
To spread hours evenly, complete the following steps:
- From the Vision Navigation menu, click .
- Open an existing plan record.
- Click the Labor, Expenses, or Consultants tab.
- Select the date on which you will begin to spread hours. On the Labor grid, right-click a Planned Hours cell; on the Expenses grid or Consultants grid, right-click a Planned Cost cell.

- Use the drop-down list in the To: field to select the date on which to stop spreading costs.
