Link Forecast And Actuals Values

Link Actuals to the project or program Forecast to apply any new actuals data to its forecast curve. Time phasing for each curve is linked. For example, an actual added in February will be applied to the Forecast in February of the same year. Linking Actuals and Forecast enables you to combine costs already incurred on a project or program with its predicted future costs, effectively creating an at-completion curve.

In the object selector, select a project or program.
From the  Main Menu, select  Cost and Funds, and then select Cash Flow.
On the Cash Flow page, select  Settings.
On the General tab, in the Configure Field Sources section, select Link Forecast to Actuals.
Select Apply.
