Project Status Cost Summary

Use the Project Status Cost Summary report to monitor the cost status of the projects for an organization or set of organizations by comparing estimate-at-completion (EAC) cost amounts, as of the current fiscal period, to total baseline budget cost amounts.

For each project, the report displays the following:

• Inception-to-date (ITD) actual burdened cost through the period preceding the current period in Costpoint Planning

• Estimate-to-complete (ETC) burdened cost

• Forecast burdened cost (ITD actual burdened cost + ETC burdened cost)

• Total baseline budget burdened cost

• Variance between forecast cost and baseline budget cost (Total baseline budget burdened cost – Forecast burdened cost)

• Variance percentage (Variance / Total baseline budget burdened cost)

To call your attention to potential issues, the report highlights negative or positive variances based on the threshold values you specify in the Color code Variance Amounts +/- and Color code Variance Percentages +/- report prompts.
