Summary – Tab

Pgm: RPFCAST – GC Monitor; standard Treeview path: Job Costing > Forecasting > GC Monitor - Summary tab

The Summary tab displays a single summary line for each bill code used in the forecast lines of the Labor and Other tabs. So, if a bill code was used in 15 different forecast lines, the Summary tab will have a single summary line for that bill code with the following notable fields:

  • Actual Cost to Date: Total posted costs for every forecast line with the bill code.

  • Projected Cost to Complete: Total projected costs for every forecast line with the bill code.

  • Original Cost Budget, Current Cost Budget, Projected Cost Budget: Original, current and projected budget for the bill code.

If any changes are made on either of the other tabs, click the [Update Forecast Summary] button to refresh this tab’s summary.

NOTE: The summary lines for bill codes on this tab contain many of the same columns as the forecast lines in the CMiC Field Contract Forecasting with PCI Projections application.
