Subtotals of each Resource on the Resource Usage Pane, shut down MSP and restarted, now it shows subtotals as I suspected it should, glich I guess.

Can the Resource Usage view display a Cumulative Cost on the Resource Usage Pane? I see Cum-Work but there is no Cum-Cost when viewing the right-click pop-up menu. I've navigated around and don't see it either. My original post and outcome worked ok, but after playing with the resources I...

Nevermind, after adding a second task I see it summarizes this Fixed Cost time-phased to the project summary, perfect.

One last question. So in this real file for my nasa customer, I'll have about 20 tasks (long duration tasks of a year or so), I'll add this fixed cost, now I see it appear, but to see the monthly totals at the bottom for ALL these mini-projects/tasks (customer specific) is it a report or does...

Oh wait just a minute, so I scrapped my file save, went back to my un-baselined (one-task proof of concept) file for testing. No baseline, added $100,000 as a Fixed Cost (added that field/column) in my custom Gantt View, then went to Task Usage and then Format and checked Cost, that gave me my...

I'm not doing something right. MSP allows entering Fixed Cost directly into pretty much any view. I built a simple file with one task in this project just to proof this will work. I added the Fixed Cost field in the Gantt view, added $100,000 to a 12 mon duration task. I then baselined the...

That's good to hear, especially the pred/succ tracing, that's long overdue.

Oh and thanks for the quick response Julie.

What I'd like the software to do is take my BAC for each task (whether that be fixed cost or whatever) and automatically time-phase that budget based on the calendar I use. Deltek's Open Plan does this, Primavera does it, just not positive MSP does this simple task.

Thanks Julie, great reply and I've been using this technique now for about 4 yrs for our company. In fact I setup various types of milestones with the flags which have unique formatting which appears on the legend and helps our customer understand what they mean, which they're used to now. I...

I've used some high-end PM software titles and then there's MS Project and Microsofts methodology of EVMS, etc. What I'm trying to accomplish was pretty simple in most of the programs I've used. We're using 2010 and I need to help a customer with a high-level schedule, year long tasks with...

Thanks John, that was a helpful tip for something I'm working on as well.

Using Fixed Units and ensuring the default Effort driven button is checked in MSP-07, I made 3 tasks, 5 day duration, created a resource in the Resource Sheet and assigned that resource to each of these 3 tasks which all started the same day intially. As I went down the task list and assigned...

I just tried a beta project I'm working on in MSP-07, I tried changing the Constraint Types to "Must Start On" and several others, other than "Start No Earlier Than" and I have no issues. Have you tried changing the Start Date under Project Information? The "Schedule From" I have selected is...

Hi, I developed a template for our company wide use to help standardize our aerospace projects. I also have several specific columns which are utilized as a standard project requirement. We now have this template on an intranet for MSP users to access and create new projects or to integrate...

What I need: I have a Text field with a custom formula that populates with specific text names that I've specified. All I need now is a report that allows me to pick and choose particular fields and most importantly provides me a count for each of the formulated "text names" I have in the...
