In the Open Standard

Does anyone know if it’s possible to display the percent complete of a WBS level on the activity spreadsheet? It shows a summary of OD/RD, dates and float etc., but not %’s. Anyone know the fix, or why it doesn’t if there isn’t one?

I’m refering to Physical % Complete before anyone asks!!

Cheers

    Hello Emma

    I had it displayed (P3.1) without any trouble.
    Simply selecting the Percent complete field.

    Can you be more specific ?

    Sorry

    Can’t advise on that.

    I’m sure help will be available pretty soon.

    Emma,

    The reason that you will not get a summary of physical % complete, is because you are not comparing like terms.

    How would you generate a summary % if your physical quantities refer to manhours, Km of cable and m3 of concrete?


    BTW it’s nice to be back in York !

    Hi Emma,

    I think you can do it. I’m not in fron of my Primavera Enterprise (PE) right now but I think you could display NOT physical PCT but ACTIVITY PCT.

    That should do it.

    Good luck.

    You have entered a minefield!! Luckily with no legs left I can maybe help you. When you record a percent complete against an activity, are you measuring:

    a) how much of the work has been done (i.e. resources)
    b) how much of the duration has been achieved
    c) how much of the monety has been spent
    d) how much value has been earned

    Steve, how are you?!!! We’re soon to move over to GS House, so I’ll wander on up and say Hi some time!

    Thanks for the reply - that makes sense! I’ll try the other myriad of % completes to see if it makes a difference.

    :o)

    Thanks - I forgot to appreciate what physical percentage was covering.... may try and see if any of the other percentages make a difference...

    Legs are overrated anyway ;o)

    OK, have now had a look at all the different types of % complete. This confirms that Activity and Physical percentages do not show up at all on the WBS line, but all the rest do. However, the only ones to show anything greater than 0% were Duration % and Duration % of original.

    Ugh! Whose Idea was it to have all these different types!!!!!!!

    Hi Emma,

    I’m on my PC now and checked. You may want to use Performance % Complete. :)

    That shows up on the WBS. And if you check the definition with Hint Help, I guess it would suit your purposes.

    Best,

    Jorge
