staff assignment and indirect costs in p6?

Sidar

LoE’s duration depends on other activities based on Start-Start and Finish-Finish relations independent from other structures, WBS summary is related to a WBS and has no relationships.

Have a look into P6-Help: Activity Details --> Activity Type.

Hi.

Using LOE activity you can expand the scope to many WBS.

In addition to what Alex wrote. P6 is a project management software, i.e. supports the pm to manage, to control his/her project. Which action to be taken, if water consumption exceeded the budget by 20 Cent? None!

Plan and collect those costs in detail which influence project’s success. All others - drinking water, ... - I would plan as a lump sum - "expense" - and attach it to a level-of-effort activity. If you can connect a certain trip with an activity - e.g. approval and the required travel of an approval engineer or the kick-off meeting and other project related meetings you can assign expenses.

Pea/cent counting is a different job.

Hi PPs



From what I read, what you try to do is run an accounting system in a project management software



I suggest you do not do that



Good Luck

Hi.

I think you can use Expense for indirectly cost like plane tickets...

If you wanna assign resource to WBS, create a WBS-summary activity and assign resource to it.
