Hi Robin,

In addition to link mentioned above, check following report for checking Cost forecast of your project

S_ALR_87013540 - Forecast

Use forecast version 133 in the selection screen.

Hi Robin,

             Also, before accessing the cost forecast, you need to do the following:

1. Reschedule :- No activity scheduling takes place in the cost forecast. You must reschedule first, so that the calculation of the cost to complete takes account of the changed dates.

2. Calculate overhead on actual and commitment values:- You must calculate the overhead on actual and commitment values separately for the calculation of the estimated costs at completion. The system determines the planned overhead for the cost to complete as part of the cost forecast.

b) Based on planned, actual, and commitment values, the system determines the remaining costs in network activities. In doing this, the system includes: All the actual and commitment values in the project, The plan values for network activities in CO version 0 and Forecast values from confirmation.

Hope it helps.
