Great, thanks Cenko
Thank you, Mr. Tom. Could you please clarify why, at 15:44, when you increase the carpenters to 200%, the cost and duration remain unchanged at $3.360,00 and the period 6 days?
Great catch there Ali, yes logically it should double the cost given it won’t shorten the schedule due tothe other resource applied. Ideally one resource where you are applying cost to one activity avoids this although itis not always practical. One solution is to remove the carpenters from the activity and reapply straight at 200 percent i think should work with your cost
Hi Tom, thanks for the videos. my question is how do you assign costs that are not part of your activity lists, say administration cost?
Look in the cost sheet and you could add some to the fixed cost column at various summary tasks. If you are referring to business overhead then I would leave that off and manage separate.
Thanks you professor Tom, hope all is going good
All good thanks Mark, i hope all is well with you too!
Hi Tom, Thank you for the explanation, very helpful but I have a question. Is there a button or setting that allows me to set the project timeline based on days rather than costs? In other words, a setting that keeps the workdays constant when I adjust the resource quantities but adjusts the cost accordingly?
Ot sure if im fully clear but you can try in options to have it calculate by duration meaning it stays fixed, try it under a practice file to test it.
Hi Tom, Thank you very much for these videos. I am finding them extremely valuable.
I do have a question about assigning resources if you can help me. The problem I have come across is how do I allocate resources from a task, once they are finished their task, onto another task that has already started, and has resources allocated without getting the little red man.
Hi Ben, go to the resource sheet and up the available resource from 100 to 200 percent or as much as you need to remove the over allocation. But you have to in reality have the xtra people,
Hello Dear Tom I am very confusing regarding cost issue. I am not beginner in MS Project but I could not understand something regarding cost I adding for task with recourses. for example - I have a task (A) where I adding work resource (for example PM with St. Rate $10/hr. that is $80 in per day. for this task (A) I also adding cost as a one-time fee for the service $100.
So after the baseline is set, baseline and total cost is $180 ( $80 for PM and $100 for sub contractor service) but after the finishing the task (A=100% done) in a cost view shown that only $80 for PM is actual cost and $100 for subcontractor till remaining cost. (this is confusing) How can this inaccuracy be corrected? on the earned value calculation is same thing and it is not accurate... I can not solve mentioned issue maybe you have any suggestion for this particular case? how it can be solved
Did you apply the sub as a cost or a fixed cost? As a cost it should update
@@TomStephensontraining Hello Dear Tom - Yes it is applied as a Cost not a fixed Cost. On one task are applied two recourses one of them is a PM as a work and Sub as a Cost. I can send to you example MS file if it will be possible..
@@TomStephensontraining Cost was assigned and payed for Activities which is 100% done but it is not reflected as a Actual Cost in the Cost View and it shows like we have a Remaining Cost till now although the works have been performed by the Sub
