I have created a dynamic scheduling for the tasks of my project however now I want to check the impact of any changes in the schedule through the scenario widget.
Added scenario manager
Created scenario and made changes in the task timeline
Want to see the impact based on the multiple scenario
Also, I am getting an error “Failed to load puck”.
Kindly guide me and thanks in advance for helping out.
Hi Folks, Kindly help me out here. The error thing got sorted out however still need your help to configure the scenario for impact analysis based on the change in schedule. Kindly guide.
Hey - there’s a “Scenarios” section in the config for Scheduling Gantt widget. The scenarios output variable can be used in other Scenarios supported workshop widgets (ex: metric cards, object tables, charts).
Thanks, but it didn’t solve my problem.
Let me again rephrase the problem statement:
I have created a dynamic schedule where each pucks are assigned as per the mapped time duration & project.
I have added a scenario manager & when I dynamically change the duration of few pucks, it gets captured in the scenario.
However, I am not able to calculate the new project cost based on the changes done. It still calculates the project cost based on the original duration.
Calculation is done based on the summation of all pucks duration * puck cost per day.
Now, the problem is How do i capture the change somewhere in variable and get that value for calculating the new project cost.
Let me know if you have any follow-up on above mentioned pointers and help me in resolving the issue.
Thanks in Advance.
A few more clarifying questions to help make sure the suggested approach below makes sense for you:
How are you deriving the total cost? Is it an aggregation on a cost property? Are you using a function?
How/where are you displaying the cost?
Without knowing the exact details, here’s how I would approach this:
Write a function to calculate cost. It should takes in an object set of the schedule object type and output a numeric value.
Create a new object set variable for my schedule object, have that object set definition use the Scenario output variable from the Scheduling Gantt chart.
Create a numeric variable that uses the function from step 1 and the object set from step 2
Use the numeric variable from step 3 in a metric card.
