Level of Effort Activities

assign a resource and cost to it and also assign  a curve. If you do not assign a curve it will stack the resource on the data date. By its definition the loe wil progress as the work does in between the choosen predecessor and successor 

Hi

I think you missunderstood my problem, let me try again

I have a level of effort activity i.e. Project Management and assinged a PM to this activity. Now duration of this activity will span till project completion date. 

Now once I assigned resource, this activity should display its total cost to the project. Its cost remains the same which is ZERO, irrespective of its duration. Moreover if project duration inceases this leo activity is not creating any effect to prject cost.

What I think the cost of leo activity should increase if duration increaes, causing the project cost to increae too.

please help

impossible this will add it to the total 

make sure you have not filtered out loe activites or this particular resource

still not

here is the screenshot

I am not a P6 user but in occasions I must deal with schedules submitted in P6 format still I noticed the following.

• The LOE bar does not match the dates.
• The remaining units/time of the assigned resource is 0 and therefore, I believe, remaining units is 0 as well as costs.

I hope this can give you some clues in order to fix the bar and the assignments.

This is as far as I can go.

Good luck.
