View Work Package Earned Value Data

You can view earned value (EV) data for non-planning work packages in the Earned Value Management section of the work package properties page. This section only displays on the page after you link the work package to a project or project task.

To update the work package earned value metrics, run the Update Earned Value Totals - Contracts job.

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

Follow these steps:

  1. Open Home, and from Earned Value Management, click Control Accounts.

    The control account page appears.

  2. Click the Work Packages icon next to the control account associated with the work package.

    The list page appears, displaying a list of work packages defined for the control account.

    The properties page appears.

    EV Calculation Method

    Displays the default earned value calculation method used when calculating earned value (EV).

    Budget (BAC)

    Displays the value of Budget at Completion (BAC), which is the budgeted total cost at the time of the baseline, based on the following formula:

    ((Actuals + Remaining Work) x Billing Rate) taken at time of baseline
    

    The work package budget BAC is used and rolled up to the control account aggregated budget BAC amount, with any other associated work package.

    Actual Cost (ACWP)

    Displays the system-calculated value of Actual Cost Of Work Performed (ACWP). This value is the total direct cost (based on posted actuals) that is incurred in performing work during a specified period. The cost calculation includes all actuals posted up until the as-of date or the system date (if no as-of date is provided).

    Earned Value (BCWP)
