Budget and Schedule Traffic Lights

I

Ivan

I am trying to create traffic light icons at the Project
Server level to inform management of projects that are
either over-budget or off schedule. I have been able to
easily create a formula at the task level to calculate
this using baseline and plan data, but have not been able
to apply a similar formula at the Project Center level.

I have created two Enterprise Project Number fields and
created a formula comparing Baseline Cost and Baseline
Finish Dates to Cost and Finish Date and using an IIF
statement defined three answers of 1, 2, or 3 but when I
look at the individual projects this info does not appear
at the Project Center level.

Does anyone know how to create automatic Traffic Lights at
the Project Center level. I can create manual ones, but I
want the determiniation made by a formula and not by the
pm. Any ideas?

Thanks

Ivan

Once you create these fields in the Ent Global template,
did you republish the plan to have these spots show??

They did at the Enterprise Task Level but not at the
Enterprise Project field level. All I got at that level
was the value 0
