Hi,
my Blog reader have a problem! He want to know how much money did he spend and, he wants that in percentage of Baseline in MS PROJECT 2010. He had sent me his mpp file!
Here it is:
I will show Resources:
You can see that some of them are over allocated, but this is not relevant for our story!
I am going to save the plan as a Baseline:
and then:
Let’s take a look at the Cost Table:
Now I am going to create Custom field:
and then:
Now I will choose that I want Formula for this field:
and then:
and I will create this formula:
Now I will change the Cost Table:
and then:
and finally:
Now I have this my custom field in the Cost Table:

¸
And for the end, few tips!
- The custom field and the cost Table should be make available for all projects! To get that you should use organizer!
- If the Baseline is not set, you will get an #ERROR in this Custom field
- If you are using Baseline1, Baseline2, etc, you should make another Custom field(s) or use IIF function!
I hope this is helpful to my friend!
Regards!

Hi Nenad.. Great Source of learning from your blog.. Love it..! Awesome work ter..!
Very helpful. Thansk – One quick question – Does Project Server 2013 allow entering different resource cost for differnt projects and in different currencies? Example, on project1 resource1 is $300/hr and project 2 his cost is $500/hr and project3 his cost is Euro 200/hr. How do I set this up in enterprise respurce pool?
Yes you can! For each project you can establish different currencie, and you can apply multiple tables for costs! I will write about it in some of my next Posts!
Thanks Nenad this was very helpful
