Spends Type Cash Flow Curve
In an Actual (or "spends) curve type cash flow curve, you can access actual costs, from the activity sheet, in addition to costs from the Cost Sheet Column or from P6 Summary Sheets.
In summary, for:
- Cash Flow CBS Detail Curves--Baseline and Forecast (Activity level), you can define the Baseline and Forecast cash flow curves with the Activity Sheet (Activity level) selected as a source for distribution or cost.
- The period distribution for each CBS Code will be received at the Activity level from the selected Activity Sheet. It is the sum of all of the Planned units for each CBS code, by day, which will be used to distribute the costs. The schedule will be disabled after you select Activity Sheet as distribution source.
- The cost distribution for each period can either be calculated based on units and total cost received from the cost sheet column, or from the cost spread received from the Activity Sheet (Activity level).
- You can get the data either from the current project or the Baseline.
- Cash Flow CBS Detail Curves--Baseline and Forecast (Resource level), you can define Baseline and Forecast curves with the Activity Sheet (Resource level) selected as a source for distribution or cost.
- The period distribution for each CBS Code will be received at the Resource level from selected Activity Sheet. It is the sum of all the Planned units for each CBS code, by day, which will be used to distribute the costs. The schedule will be disabled after you select Activity Sheet as distribution source.
- The cost distribution for each period can either be calculated based on units and total cost received from cost sheet column, or from the cost spread received from the Activity Sheet (Resource level).
- You can get the data either from the current project or the Baseline.
- Cash Flow CBS Detail Curves--Spends (Activity level), you can define Actual (or "spends) curve with the Activity Sheet (Activity level) selected as a source for cost. It will be the sum of all of the actual costs for each CBS code, per day, across the activities.
- Cash Flow CBS Detail Curves--Spends (Resource level), you can define Actual (or "spends) curve with Activity Sheet (Resource level) selected as a source for cost. It will be the sum of all of the actual costs for each CBS code, per day, across the resources.
