Hello everyone,

I have an activitiy (not started) which is scheduled to start in 29 March 2017 and finish in 08 May 2017. However, when i chect the remaining total cost layout, it shows the total cost only in May 2017. It does not distribute the cost evenly.

I do not have any curve assingned to that resource. 

Calculation settings which are checked:

Link budget and At Completion for not started activities

Reset remaining duration and units to original

Substract actual from at completion

Recalculate Actual Units and cost when duration % changes

Link actual to date and actual this period units and costs

 

Regards.
