Earned Value Management Report

Introduction

This module is part of a set of modules (Business Requirements).

This module introduces Earned Value Management report based on the information from the Business Requirements Resources and Deliverable lines. You can check the following resources for more information about EVM:

• [RFC] Earned Value Management Report
• Earned Value Management introduction
• Wikipedia Entry

Configuration

To fully be able to use the report, the following information must be properly maintained:

• Cost price in the products associated to resources
• Resources lines should contain valid cost and total cost.
• Employees should contain a valid resource product (comparable to the one in the Resource lines)
• The time spent on Timesheets should be properly recorded

Usage

1. In the Business requirement, you add Deliverable Lines as necessary,with the corresponding Resources lines.
2. When the BR is validated the project should be created so that the users can manage their tasks.
3. When the users spend time on a given task they should input their timesheets accordingly in the task.

Note

When creating new tasks, the related BR should be set up properly in the task in order to be properly accounted

Known issues / Roadmap

• Needs timesheets on the tasks related to BR. In the future we might think of a way to input TS on project directly
