What must you enter on the record for Actuals to appear?

For Actuals to appear in the context of project management and resource tracking, entering the Time Period is essential. The Time Period specifies the timeframe for which the actuals are being reported. It establishes the date range that defines the scope of the data being analyzed, ensuring that the actual metrics align with the proper schedule of the project.

This specificity is crucial because actual costs, hours worked, and other resource-related data need to be associated with an appropriate timeframe to give a clear and accurate representation of project performance. Without defining the Time Period, the system cannot determine which actuals to pull and display, leading to gaps in reporting and management insights.

In contrast, while project-related information such as Project Name, Resource ID, or Cost Center can be important for various functions within the system, they do not serve as the primary trigger for the visibility of actuals. The Time Period is a foundational element that directly impacts the reporting accuracy and relevance of the data being reviewed.
