How to Adjust Reports in MS PROJECT 2010?

 

Hi,

I will adjust one Report for my Wedding Project. I will adjust Cash Flow Report:

and then:

image

and I will get:

image

This is ORIGINAL Cash Flow Report.

I will change it:

image

and I will get:

image

I will change that:

image

I want to have Cash Flow in Days instead of weeks, and I want to have Resources in my rows, instead of Tasks. In addition I want to see Actual Costs, and Task Assignments. Also, I want to have A Filter: Cost Greater Than, so I will choose when I run this report a Value!

Let’s see Details Tab:

I will change that, too:

I don’t want to have Row and Column Totals, and I want Gridlines between Tasks and Resources. I also want to show zero values, and different Date Format.

Let’s go to Sort Tab:

I will change the sort order:

image

I want to sort my Report Ba Actual Cost Descending, and then by ID Ascending.

Finally, when I run this Report I get:

image

I choose to have only Actual costs greater than $100, and then I have:

It is easy, isn’t it.

But what if I want to have my own Report? I will show The Budget Report from Custom group:

image

and then:

image

I will get:

image

I will make a brand new Report from this one.

image

and then:

image

The name is My Budget Report, period is in days, and I want a Cost table!

Let’s see the Details Tab:

image

I will choose Borders around details, and Gridlines between details:

image

Finally, I am going to sort the data:

image

Let see how does this Report work:

image

Do you see the difference, between this and “original” report? You don’t??? Neither do I. This is a BUG! What can you do? Install Service Pack 1, and it will fix the Problem.

After that I will get:

image

and then:

image

It works!

Regards!

    Is is possible to create reports (rather than views) with Gantt charts in Project 2010? I’m told it is possible, but haven’t yet been able to figure out how to do it. Thanks!
