Budget

How do I relate the budget to the chart?

RE: Budget

Hi Kirsty

thanks for your question - when you baseline a project with cost figures associated with your resources Project captures a baseline cost figure for each task. This is in effect your budget for the Project.

Right click on the blank square above the row number 1 and just to the left of the Indicators column header and from the short menu that appears choose Cost. Project will display the Cost table which shows the variance between your baseline figure (effectively your budget) and your projected spend.

I hope this is helpful - let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards,


Andrew


 

MS Project tip:

Link tasks using predecessor column - project

a. First, note ID number of the task you want to link to (predecessor). Then, in the predecessor column of the task you want to link to (successor), type the predecessor task's ID number.
b. The link will be a Finish to Start (the default type).
c. Or you can add in a code for a different relationship type
i. SS = Start to Start
ii. FF = Finish to Finish
iii. SF = Start to Finish
d. You don't have to type the task ID numbers in any specific order, but you must separate multiple tasks with commas.
