Glossary

Fields In Deltek Acumen, the Fields tab provides a mapping table for all projects, for all activity, resource, user defined, and code fields. This can be especially useful if you have disparate or incompatible field mappings and need to align data items correctly.
Metric In Deltek Acumen, a metric is a tool that will scan the project schedule’s activities looking for a particular condition, and then returning values to indicate the status of that condition.
Workbook The Acumen workbook is the data storage object (an AFW file) that contains project schedules, metrics, snapshots, the risk register: basically any and all things associated with the projects within that named workbook.
