Progress Analysis to measure
EVA
I am currently working on a Chemical industry Re-implementation. My client wants to implement Progress Analysis to measure EVA. They current use WBS elements (No Networks). I have been trying to find an instance where progress analysis (EVA) has been implemented for WBS so I can decide what needs to be in place. Anyone who has some imformation on these should please give me an insight or documentation. This would be greatly appreciated. Tony Unfortunately, from my experience, I can say that Progress
analysis/ EVA Earned Value Analysis in PS cannot be done without the activities
and of course withouth the networks. We had the same problem, as in our
company as we had before only WBS and we needed EVA. For EVA PS has the
Transaction CNE5 and in this kind of reports (see also CN41) values of
rhe the field "actual work" will be "built up" on basis of activities confirmations.
As I can suggest you, if the company does not want to change the current
structure of the projects, a soulution would be to i! ntegrate PS with
BW, if they have BW there, and to generate the needed reports for analysing
the EVA in BW.
Elena Manole Thanks for the reply. It is very helpful. It confirms what I thought. Tony Progress analysis at WBS level is also possible., Use estimation method and put the ACTUAL WORK DONE. Mukesh I agree with Mr Mukesh. We are using the EVA method estimation
and actual work done for WBS.
Salim Mohsin Shakir Using the Estimation method with WBS means you are not really doing EVM in SAP. You would need to calculate the percentage using another tool. Also, since your WBS schedule dates are not dynamic, the forecasts would be very difficult to create. If the company is re-imiplementing, have them implement Networks Activities, at a minimum of one Activity per WBS. Erik
