The Cost Analysis view enables you to view an Explanation of Variance (EoV) for a specific control account or work package.
To display an EoV from the Cost Analysis form for a control account or work package, an EoV must first be created on the Explanation of Variance form for that particular control account or work package.
If you are the Approver of the progress entry, you can also view the Explanation of Variance for a control account or work package from the Approve Cost Progress form. If you are the Assignee, you can also view the Explanation of Variance from the Enter Cost Progress form.
