I have a P6v7 schedule created with the cost for each activity as a resource (rather than Expense, so that it can be used to create an SDEF for QCS input). The 'calculate costs' and 'auto compute' ticky-boxes are ticked. When I update the activity percentage (physical), both simply in-progress or complete, it clears the dollars out of the budgeted cost in the resource (setting it to $0).
I understand that P6 is unequated (dollars and durations will not run off the same entered percentage) so I already know I'll need to enter each update twice. But I'd really like to have the budgeted total stick around so I know how much it is without flipping back and forth to a previous schedule. How do I keep the resource-loaded budget from clearing when I update?
