How to Calculate and Record Earned Value Totals

A snapshot of your project's earned value is saved to the earned value history table during the scheduled run of the Update Earned Value Totals job. This job calculates and records the project's current earned value data totals, which you can display on project and task list pages and portlets.

Do the following to calculate and record current earned value metrics:

1. Override the default object-level earned value options:
   • At the project level
   • At the task level
2. Do one of the following:
   • Have your CA Clarity PPM administrator schedule the Update Earned Value Totals job to run periodically.
   • Manually update the earned value data from the:
     • Baseline page
     • WBS
     • Task list

Note: Contact your CA Clarity PPM administrator or see the Administration Guide for more information.
