Display Financial Analysis (Graph) (tppss0706m000)

Use this session to modify the financial analysis graph. You can make a planning of the required or remaining amounts in the future by analyzing the costs and revenues within a specific period.

Select the appropriate check boxes to display the associated options.

Note:

You can only use the budgeted costs of an activity budget.
If you clear the Budgeted Costs check box, you cannot distribute budgeted costs over the activity.

The graph shows a cost line and a revenue line. Both lines consist partly of actual amounts and partly of planned amounts. Before the reference date the actual costs and revenues are shown. After the reference date the planned costs and revenues including the forecast are shown.

You can modify the titles of the fields in the Chart Options group box. You can reset the graph using these modified titles.

Budget Cost Analysis Version

Description

The description or name of the code.

Reference Date

The reference date must be between the planned start and finish date of the project. If the forecast and actual costs are given for a started activity, the following example holds:

The graph displays a line going up to 274, which is calculated in the following way:

On the reference date the free budget is only 30, that is, 125 divided by the days the activity runs, multiplied by the days from the reference day on left to finish the activity, so: (125/91)*22.
The forecast is 144, that is, 150 divided by the days of the effective forecast of the activity multiplied by the days left from the reference date on: (150/23)*22.
The actual costs are released at 2010/12/08.
The formula is: actuals + forecast + budget = 100 + 144 + 30 = 174

Note: If the forecast lies before the activity start date, the forecast starts counting on the activity start date. If you use terms of payment, the offsetting influences the release of the budget.
