Displaying the Progress Report

Use

In the information system you evaluate the data together with additional project key figures.

In addition to standard reports, you can also define your own reports. The flexible project reports enable you to define comparison figures in addition to the progress analysis values. Cost and activity variances are important project key figures. You can evaluate these values either at the level of individual project elements or aggregated for the entire project or subproject.

Result

The values determined by the system lead to the cost and activity variances for the Detail Engineering activities.

The values can be interpreted as follows:

A negative cost variance shows that you have incurred more costs than intended. A positive cost variance shows that the work has been cheaper than planned.
A positive activity variance shows that the project progress on the key date is better than planned. A negative value shows that the project progress is less than planned.

In the Planning accuracy column you see a planning index.

A planning index of 1 means that your cost planning was perfect.
An index of 0.5 means that you have incurred twice as many costs as planned.

Additionally, you can see the forecast cost to complete, the forecast total costs and the difference between the planned costs and the forecast total costs.
