The total for the Cost Plan that is marked as the Plan of Record for the project (Current Cost Plan Total), alongside the total for the current approved Budget Plan (Current Budget Plan Total). These two values are then compared in order to generate the total current Variance for the project. A positive amount in the Variance column indicates the project is under budget, while a negative amount indicates the project is over budget. Results may be filtered by: Project ID, Project Name, Manager, and whether the project is Active (Yes, No, All). By default, the portlet will display only Active projects. -
