Percent Complete?

Richard, You can manually enter the percent complete for ’Duration Percent Complete’ activities, as long as you are aware that your remaining duration will be adjusted accordingly;
10 day activity @ 50% = 5 remaining days

Hi,

You can disconnect the percent complete from the remaining duration.
TOOLS > OPTIONS > DEFAULT AUTOCOST RULES.
You have to uncheck the first line ("link remaining duration and schedule percent complete").

This option is very good, because you can disconnect percent from remaining duration, thus if you give a budget for all your activities, you will be able to calculate a physical progress (in mhrs or quantities like concrete m3, ton of structural steel or piping inches).

But be careful, when it is desactivated, you must know and calculate for all your activities progress realized and remaining duration.

Personnaly, I am a partisan of this way of working but with constraints.

what program (software) are you referring to?

You right,

I didn’t mention that I was talking about versus 3 or 3.1
