Users can note an uncommitted forecast cost as a "C" code for contingency items and a "P" code for project costs.
I would like users to also have the option to note uncommitted forecast costs as an "O" code for opportunities, and for these to be aggregated separately on the summary report (like C codes are).
Our forecasting identifies differences between an opportunity and a contingency cost and it would be good to be able to have these noted separately.

Hi Scott,
We have a Risk & Opportunities (R&O) module in the BFM that allows you to
register Opportunities and Risks to both Cost and Revenue.
You can also link the Revenue items to Variations.
With the R&O module, you can note Optimistic, Pessimistic and Expected
values and take your nominated value to Forecast.
Your PM forecast will always be preserved, and the R&O taken to forecast
will impact project margin as a separate line item.
For more information on how to setup R&O in Jobpac please log a request for
service on our support portal. I believe there is also some documentation
on the support portal.
cheers
Andrew
