Budgeted units = actual units

Hi,

I have set up percent complete type as units & most of activities are completed (100%). But the progress at the summary level is still very low because while updating the resource units have not been updated. So is there any way (global change) to apply budgeted units to actual units to 100% completed activities (not apply actuals).

Regards
Naveen

    Global change is the right idea:
    - Group ("Activity Resource Assignments")
    - If actual finish >
    - Actual this period labor units = Budgeted regular labor units
    Please check the list before commitment. No warranty, I don’t belong to Primavera - just a user
    Hope this will help

    Hi

    When you mentioned summary level, do you mean @ tracking view and project view. If it is, then its simple, you need to run project summarisation to update these details to the project level.

    Dieter,

    I cannot put actual finish NOT EQUAL TO because I mentioned earlier that these activities have actual finish dates but the resource units have not been updated (For example if the budgeted units were 100 then actual units are left as 0). Only start & finish has been updated & this is causing the unit % complete at summary level to be very low. I tested this on a small project with 5 activities & the result has been the same.

    Alex,

    Its in normal gantt chart veiw.

    Open "Tools" --> "Global Change" --> "New" --> select "Activity Resource Assignments" --> Give a name to this global change --> lines as indicated.
    I have the impression that you are not familiar with the Global Ghange, so after you will have selected "New" you’ll select "Help" first. The description is very good.
    If you’ll have any difficulties, write a private message.
    Good luck
    Dieter
