ETC Before
|
This column displays the total
ETC hours that exist for dates after the
JTD date and before the start date of the first calendar period column in the forecast range. (Generally, the
JTD date is the date of the latest historical labor record in the database, but your system administrator can specify a different date.)
On the
Totals row, this column displays the sum of the
employee's
ETC hours for dates before the start date of the first calendar period column in the forecast range.
If the day following the
JTD date falls within the date range for the first calendar period column, no
ETC hours exist for dates prior to the forecast range, so this column does not display.

Calendar period columns
|
The calendar period columns display planned hours for the
employee by day, week, or month.
The forecast range you specify in the Change Forecast Range dialog box determines the time frame each calendar period column represents. For example, if you select
Weeks in
SCALE,
8 in
DURATION, and
July 1, 2017 in
START WEEK, the grid displays eight calendar period columns, each column represents a week, and the first calendar period column is for the week that contains July 1, 2017.
Using the options in
Show Capacity above the grid, you can also display utilization percentages and scheduled percentages for
employees in these columns on the
Totals row. The values in calendar period columns are calculated and displayed as follows, based on your selection in
Show Capacity:
- Planned hours: Planned hours for the calendar period for the WBS element. The
Totals row displays the total planned hours for the
employee for the calendar period.
- Schedule percentage: The
Totals row displays the schedule percentage for the
employee: Planned hours for the calendar period / Total available hours for the calendar period. Cell background color indicates schedule status: gray (properly scheduled), yellow (under-scheduled), red (over-scheduled). WBS rows display planned hours.
- Utilization percentage: The
Totals row displays the utilization percentage for the
employee: Billable planned hours for the calendar period / Total available hours for the calendar period. (Billable hours are hours planned for
projects assigned the Regular charge type.) Cell background color indicates utilization status: gray (properly utilized), yellow (under-utilized), red (over-utilized). WBS rows display planned hours.
For the WBS level rows, bold values in the calendar columns indicate that the hours for the period are hard booked, and italic values indicate they are either all soft booked or a mix of soft-booked hours and hard-booked hours.
