Using inactive tasks, new in Project Professional 2010, you can easily experiment with your project plan and perform what-if analysis. Often you'll need to evaluate scenarios and consider options when planning new projects or monitoring ongoing work. Use built-in earned-value metrics for predictive analysis and integrated performance management. Control project costs by comparing budgets to completed tasks and forecasted totals. Validate budgets against bottom-up estimates built by using labor, material, and cost resources. Create high-level time-phased budgets with user-defined categories for costs and labor. Quickly compare budget versus actual versus forecasted values to measure an initiative's progress with the flexibility of setting multiple baselines. New in Project 2010, the Task Inspector offers additional analysis and intuitive guidance to resolve scheduling conflicts derived from a task’s attributes and assigned resources, which you can choose to act upon or not. The new Team Planner view in Project Professional 2010 shows resources and work over time, to help you spot problems and resolve issues.
