The 'Forecast to Complete' Column

To help your project team gain a greater understanding about what remains to be completed on a project, column 16 Forecast to Complete 'Forecast to Complete' column is included in our Tucker Budget 2.0 view

The Automatic Calculation method is applied for all line items. Similar to other calculated columns this calculates the remaining project costs based on the difference between the 15 Forecasted Cost at Completion (your 'projected budget') and 9 Completed to Date (what has been invoiced so far). Lines where automatic calculation is applied will show a small lighting bolt icon next to the value in 16 Forecast to Complete. This is the only column that shows a lighting bolt icon.

In some circumstances such as CCDC-5B contracts, it may be necessary to manually override this calculation for a given month's forecast to project budget line item or contingency transfers that have not yet been processed as a budget modification. However, it is crucial that you do not manually over-ride the automatic calculation without first speaking to your Project Controls Coordinator. There should be no need to use manual override on projects CCDC-5A contracts.
