Return Actual Cost to Work Inspector/Progress webpage

I note the New/Enhanced Feature for SYNCHRO Perform removed "Actual Cost" from the Progress page of the Work Inspector in 9-Jun-2024 update.

This page reports "Revised Earned Cost" which is linked to the actual progress. This information is most useful when compared to the actual cost, providing an indication of productivity/CPI (Cost Performance Index) as previously available. By removing the actual cost from alongside the earned cost now requires users to construct an external report to have a working guide to activity performance.

I would suggest the "improvement" of removing Actual Cost from being shown alongside Earned Cost is not an enhancement, but rather a reduction in the usefulness of the Progress page in providing a useful guide to project / activity health.

Please return the Actual Cost column to its rightful place alongside the Earned Cost page (and perhaps add a CPI column) to enable persons to have ready evidence of progress against cost.
