Merging Datasets From Different Sources

Acumen includes a utility for merging datasets from different sources into a single set of data that can subsequently be analyzed. You can use this integration feature to combine cost and schedule information.

For example, Acumen can merge a cost estimate from Excel with a schedule created in MS Project or Primavera.

Non-standard fields can also be imported/merged by drag-dropping the merge fields into the Acumen field list in the field mapping view. Available mapped fields are displayed in the source field list highlighted in green. The merge file must have a column called ID in order to bind the merge data with activities in the Acumen workbook.
