The Project Explorer window, which lists the EPS structure, displays in the upper left pane of the Tracking window. A + sign before an item indicates it contains additional levels of detail. Click the + sign to open additional levels; when all levels for an item are open, the + changes to a minus sign. Click the – sign next to an item to close the detail levels below it.
- To change the display options in the Project Explorer window, click the Display Options bar.
- To display data in the current layout for a project element, click the project element in the Project Explorer window. Live data is displayed for open projects. Closed projects display summarizer data in the current layout, if the summarizer was run for the project. If the summarizer has not been run, no data displays.
Tips
- You can view detailed information about a project by right-clicking on the project and then choosing Project Details.
- The Summary tab displays the date the summarizer was last run for the selected project. This will give you an idea of how current your summary data is. The summary tab also displays information about the WBS level to which the project was summarized. For example, a project may use four WBS levels, but may have been summarized to WBS level 2. As a result, Tracking window data shows rolled up values to the second WBS level for that project, when viewed in Summary mode.
