1. Compare costs over time.
The Chart View is a useful tool in budget planning. It displays cost values from the grid graphically, enabling you to compare costs over time. In the Settings, select Cost Curves to display.

2. Cost Curves.
For example, compare Forecast and Target Budget. Display the curves incrementally, cumulatively, or both. 

3. Time Scale Slider.
Use the Time Scale Slider to zoom in on a specific time period. Select which project data to display, all the projects in the budget plan or those selected on the grid view.
