How to Manually Run Recalculation
Step 1: Access Scheduled Tasks
- Go to Administration in the global menu
- Select Overview of scheduled tasks
Step 2: Run Earned Value Updater
- Find the task named Earned value updater
- Click the option to run it manually
- This recalculates the Actual Cost and Earned Value lines for the project
- These lines will be updated to reflect all changes made, not just for today
Step 3: Understand the Reload Constantly Option
