Dear All ,

 

While loading a cost for my project , i tried to assign the resources for general activities ( e.g. Indirect manpower cost or laydown cost ) to a " Level of effort activity " .

But while updating those LOE activities, i observed that there are no Earned value calculations for those activities .

Is there any way to fix this problem or this is an attribute to LOE activity?

    LOE Activities only measure

    LOE Activities only measure schedule performance as it relates to time no actual work effort.

    Using a LOE to calculate earned value distorts the total project EVM becasue the values derived from LOE grows relative to the total project planned value

    LOE does not distinguish cost variance from schedule variance. All variance is recognized as cost variance for LOE work
