EVM Widget Updates

We’ve enhanced the Earned Value Management (EVM) widget to provide more accurate, reliable, and timely project performance data. 

The changes include:

• Improved data accuracy: The widget now sources its information directly from our newly structured EV Period datasets and supporting tables. This ensures calculations and visuals reflect the most current project data.
• Greater control over reporting periods: Users can now select the reporting period dataset they want to analyse, making it easier to compare and track progress over time.
• Project-level focus:The data shown is specific to the individual project. 
  1. Roll Up: There’s no roll-up to higher levels (such as programs or portfolios), as this would not reflect accurate Earned Value tracking. 
  2. Filters: these will only apply to the grid and will not affect the chart values 
• Clearer layout and standardised terminology: Column headers and graph legends have been updated to align with industry-standard metrics (e.g. BCWP, ACWP, BCWR). This makes the widget easier to read and understand at a glance.

These improvements help users interpret project performance at a glance, with clearer insights into cost, schedule, and progress based on the most current and consistent data available.
