Master Project Schedules and Finances

• Understand how your changes are affecting the project with highlighted items lists, which appear with each change you make.
• Test several different scenarios and undo/redo them if needed with the Multiple Level Undo, featured in Project 2007.
• Assign different budgets to certain projects or programs, and stay on track with new cost estimation and tracking functions.
• Define custom fields that apply to your particular project, and calculate and track metrics with this new flexible function.
