Is there a way of entering progress to a historic progress period?

Hi,

I am trying to enter progress for a project where I need to adjust percentages in a progress period which goes back in time.

There are more progress periods after this.

I have two columns, one is Actual % complete and the other is Planned % complete.

However when I select one of the progress periods the Planned % complete changes but the Actual % complete stays the same as the progress entered in the latest progress period.

How do I overcome this?

The reason for this is because I am trying to produce an S curve but I have a flat line for the first half of the project and I just want this first half to match the baseline.

Thanks

    Hi Yasine,

    If you change your Actual % complete column to Overall % complete you can then select the progress period you want to enter the percentage into. This is all done through the table definitions box.

    In turn you can have a Overall % complete column for each progress period.

    I hope this helps.

    Charlotte,Thank you for your

    Charlotte,

    Thank you for your helpful post.

    I have tried the method you mentioned and it appears to have worked. I have realised that the drop down menu of "Progress periods" under table defenitions only shows up in the Overall percentage column.

    I have always used the "Percent Complete" column and that dropdown menu option isnt available.

    One thing I would also like to mention which may be useful to others is that if at one point of a project if you wanted to look back and see where progress was in terms of percent complete of specific tasks the way to do it would be to add the column "Progress at period". So each time you change the progress period you can see where the percentages were.

    Thanks
