What happens if I update planned amounts based on progress?

Updating planned amounts based on progress involves using estimate-at-completion (EAC) quantity to update planned values for task assignments.

Planned costs are recalculated after you revise the planned quantity in the Manage Financial Project Plan page. Revised assignment amounts roll up the task hierarchy, and are spread across planning periods.

You can update plan amounts for the entire project plan when publishing progress or select specific task assignments for update in the project plan.

Note: You can't edit progress information for unplanned resources. Consequently, you can't update the corresponding task assignment in the project plan based on progress until you set the resource as a planned resource.
