You can also use filters to see tasks that have run over budget.Ĭlick View tab → Data group → Filters → More Filters → Cost Overbudget → Apply.įor some organizations, resources costs are primary costs, and sometimes the only cost, so these need to be closely watched.Ĭlick View tab → Resource Views group → Resource Sheet.Ĭlick View tab → Data group → Tables → Cost. You will be able to view all relevant information. Variance − Difference between Baseline Cost and the Total Cost (current or scheduled cost).Ĭlick View Tab → Data group → Tables → Cost. If you have started to track actual cost, it will include actual cost+ remaining cost (uncompleted task) per task. This will appear under the fields labeled Cost or Total Cost. Remaining costs − Difference between baseline/current costs and actual costs.Ĭurrent costs − When plans are changed due to assigning or removing resources, or adding or subtracting tasks, MS Project 2013 will recalculate all costs. To examine cost in a project life cycle, you should be aware of these terms and what they mean in MS Project 2013 −īaseline costs − All planned costs as saved in baseline plan.Īctual costs − Costs that have been incurred for tasks, resources, or assignments. Any task that is already completed will not show up. So if you select Slipping Task, you will view only incomplete tasks. MS Project 2013 will filter the task list to show only the tasks filtered in this process.

Method 1: Graphical View by Tracking GanttĬlick View tab → Task Views group → Gantt Chart dropdown → Tracking Gantt.īy comparing the currently scheduled Gantt bars with baseline Gantt bars, you can see what tasks started later than planned or took longer to complete.
There are several ways to view task with variance. Variance is mostly measured in terms of Time and Cost. When there is a difference between what is planned and the actual project performance, it is called a Variance. At this stage, the project manager would be focusing on collecting, monitoring, analyzing project performance, and updating project status by communicating with the stakeholders. After creating a project plan and baselines, the project begins.
