Need a little guidance and also my first post!!
I have a live project currently thats working 6 normal dayshifts.
Due to client instructions, the programme is being delayed and client wants to instruct acceleration. They want 2 options for a 16hr working period - 6 days a week.
The uplifts in labour for the permanent resources isn't an issue. I have set an additional overtime period in the calendar to a seperate cost centre and that reports well.
They also want options for materials delivered only during normal daytime working and an option indication of the costs for material deliveries as required by the programme, i.e. day or night as demanded.
I cant see a mechanism to report planned consumables in a calendar overtime period. We have some long sequences of pours or surfacing that are multiple days and should become shorter, but I cant Report/quantify my out of hours materials automatically on a consumable resource other than long hand from the rates, so that it can be costed.
Problem is that the contract & programme will continue to have issues and I need to report or do what/ifs quickly rather than hand calculating the effect.
Any ideas or am I missing something on the consumable resources settings?
