Dear PPs
In P5 and P6 one can not add a percentage completion to any activity without indicating the actual start date...this is logical
however in P3, you add whatever percentage, even 100% complete without having to specify the actual start or finish.
My question is, what adverse effect this has on the schedule (adding 100% complete without actuals)
thanks in advance

Oldest first- 0Ferdinand Fincalero, PMP ·Although P3 allows entry of % completion even without the specified actual dates, I guess P3 users never do such a thing in the schedule as one will noticeably be viewing a dangling blue colored bar beyond the data date. To answer the question;
Adverse effect on the schedule:
- You will unnecessarily consume the resource allocation of the activity which will affect as well the program’s cost calculations.
Adverse effect on the planner:
- You will be tagged as a "STUPID PLANNER".
Cheers!!!
