The Earned Value Management Macros
| %EVG_COST_PLOT |
This macro is used to produce a plot of earned value measures over time. The plots include Planned Value, Earned Value, Actual Cost, and revised cost.
- %EVG_COST_PLOT < ( parameters ) > ;
Note: %EVG_COST_PLOT requires output from %EVA_METRICS.
Optional Parameters
- ACRONYMS= long
-
specifies whether the long form of the earned value acronyms is to be used—e.g., BCWP versus EV. The short form is used unless the macro variable _ACRONYMS_ is set to "long" or ACRONYMS=long is specified. The parameter overrides the macro variable setting; i.e., specifying any non-null value other than "long" for the ACRONYMS= parameter produces short forms.
- METRICS= SAS-data-set
-
identifies the periodic metrics data set produced by the %EVA_METRICS macro, the name of which is determined by the METRICS= parameter of %EVA_METRICS. The default data set name is METRICS.
- PLOT= SAS-data-set
-
specifies the name of the output data set. This is an internal data set that is used as input to the plotting procedure. The default data set name is PLOT.
- SUMMARY= SAS-data-set
-
identifies the summary data set from the %EVA_METRICS macro, the name of which is determined by the SUMMARY= parameter of %EVA_METRICS. The default data set name is SUMMARY.
