START and FINSIH dates in P3E

Hi
The START DATE, as per P3ec definition is the current start date of the activity. Set to the planned start date until the activity is not started, then to the actual.
The FINISH DATE, as well is the completion date of the activity. Ste to the finish planned date till the activity is in the future, the remaining finish date till the activity is under progress, then the actual.

regards,
Luca

PS
In P3ec have been introduced the planned date, that may be user input with the aim to have another baseline.

your answer:

The START DATE, as per P3ec definition is the current start date of the activity. Set to the planned start date until the activity is not started, then to the actual.

what current value the start date will take if it s not yet started.is’t the Early start or the Late start?

========================================

The early date for both.


Luca

It will be early start & early finish if you are planning forward pass. In backward planning it will be late start and late finish.

Raj I am agree with you in a CPM calculation.
Here we were discussing what P3e is showing in some fields.
The earliest dates is teh answer.

Cheers,
Luca

The two fields, Planned versus Early dates, will be different if you are resource leveling and have the correct setting. Then Planned will have the resource-leveled dates and Early will have the CPM dates.

Yes, if you resource level the data will be from the leveling.
At difference from P3 3.1 these data will not change after a re-scheduling with the same data date.
