If you use CTRL and left click or SHFT click you can select any number of activities.



Yes, P3’s profile allows selection by cost account.....

hi david



thanks really for your answer, to be honest i already tried your method, but it work only for one activity ( or all the activities in the same time)



i don’t like to troll but, imho this is a regression, in p3, it is so easy to do it, resource cost/profile, then in select, you have all imaginable way to choose the combination you like, either by cost account or resource names.



friendly yours

There is no way to do it directly. Although earned value graphs can be drawn in the "Activity Usage Profile" lower layout, you can only select what is graphed by an attribute of the Activity record (e.g. activity code) NOT the resource. Cost account is an attribute of the resource record.



If each activity only has only one cost account - then it can be done - although that kind of invalidates why you would be using cost accounts in the first place.



Group and Sort the activities by Cost account, and use the "selected activities" radio button at the bottom left of the "Activity Usage Profile" lowerlayout.
