Actuals

When evaluating the progress of a project, it can be useful to compare how much time has already been spent on the project with how many hours are still planned.

Note: Before you can add the Actuals To and Grand Totals columns, they must first have been added to the Column Chooser as available columns. See Specify Available Columns in the Column Chooser.

To add the Actuals To column:

1. Right-click on the header.
2. On the Column Chooser, select the Actuals To column and the Grand Total column.

   The Actuals To column shows the sum of actuals—that is, time registrations—up until and including the Estimate Date.

   The Allocated After column shows the planned hours after the Estimate Date.

   The Grand Total columns sum the Actuals up to the Estimate Date with the planned hours after the date. This sum should ideally be equal to the budgeted hours on the project.

   Tip: To see the individual actuals, you can select the Actuals & Allocated display view.
