Hi folks,
I have a customer requirement to bring the labour hours in to the monthly review forecast, as they evaluate the labour requirements in hours.
What is the easiest/best way to achieve this requirement ?
The option I was thinking of was to use a combination of resource planning + resource forecasting functionality.
- Plan resources against each of the project activities and enter the planned hours.
- Employees report time using these activities.
- Create a resource forecast on a monthly basis that would generate the ETC hours and EAC hours. (this also shows the dollar values corresponding to the ETC hours/EAC hours)
- Create the monthly review forecast and in that, include the resource forecast created above. This would update EAC and ETC based on the resource hours as well.
Just wondering if there is a simpler way to achieve this requirement.
Thank you,
Ash
