Resources on Summary Tasks
I'm putting together a schedule, and I find it easier to add the resources to some summary tasks. My project control guru says this is not a good practice. Can you explain?

Baseline Costs Don't Add Up
I've baselined my schedule. I added extra tasks, and I've baselined them as well. But I noticed that the project total doesn't reflect the new project budget. What gives?

Assets Need To Be Included For Earned Value
My schedule includes the cost of my labor, but what about my assets like the servers we are buying? How do I add them?

% Complete vs. % Work Complete
The schedule I'm working on has a column for % Work Complete. Is this different from the regular % Complete column or a duplication?
