View Combined Subproject Actuals and Estimates

The Total row on the subprojects properties page displays the total number of actuals and estimates accrued and entered for all of the projects in the program.

The cells in the Total row display the combined total of the data in each column. Thus, in the sample screen above, the combined actuals for all of the projects in the program are 1,138, while the total ETC is 1,556.

The following table provides descriptions of the columns and data displayed on the page:

Count

Subprojects are allowed to have their own subprojects. The number in the Count column indicates the number of subprojects a subproject (or in the case of a program, a project) contains.

Actuals

Displays the actuals that have been posted for the tasks in each project. The number in the Total cell reflects the combined actuals of all of the projects in the program.

ETC

Displays the Estimated To Complete (ETC) number for each of the projects in the program. The number in the Total cell reflects the combined ETC for all of the projects in the program.

Total Effort

Total effort is Actuals + remaining ETC. The cells in the column reflect the total effort for each project. The number in the Total cell reflects the combined effort of all of the projects in the program.

% Expended

Displays the percentage of resource usage expended on this project. The value in the Total cell reflects the combined percentage for all of the projects in the program.

Baseline

Displays the usage number for the project most current baseline. Usage is Total effort (actuals plus remaining ETC) to date.

Status

This stoplight indicates if the project is approved (green), on-hold (yellow), or unapproved (red). The stoplight in the Total cell provides an overall at whether all of the projects in the program have been approved.

Schedule

The stoplight indicates if a project is on schedule, or in danger of being delayed. In the Total row, the stoplight provides an overall view if most projects in the program are on schedule.
