BCWS

[Alexander Barvinsky]

Hi,
Why after saving baseline only zeroes in this field in EV table? As I
understood, BCWS is scheduled value and have to be non zero. Am I wrong?

Hello Alexander,
Have you set a baseline : Tools / Tracking / Save baseline (after all the
tasks, ressources and costs are defined in the project)
Have you set a Status date : Project / Project information...
Then enter the actual data

There are two parts of BCWS. The budgetted cost (that is the baseline) which
mean you need cost assigned to all your resources as well as a baseline.
With not cost for resources the budgetted cost is 0. The second part is Work
scheduled. Project uses that "Status Date" to determine what has been
scheduled. Go to the Project Menu / Project Information and check to see
what the status date is set to. If it is set to a date prior to any work
being done then the BCSW will also be 0.
