Application

    The Analysis Type toggle was added, which lets you choose whether to view Health Check data for one project or a portfolio view for all projects. Two new metrics have been added to the Health Check tab.

    The first metric allows you to identify the project cost items that have their budgeted cost put under the Undefined Cost Category.

    The other new metric allows you to identify cost items 100% complete that have negative forecast cost/mhrs. These are to be counted as part of 100% Complete with FC Remaining Cost/Mhrs.

    Additional views have been added to the Change Details tab to allow you to see a variety of Change metrics.
