P6 Global Change Question

In the Open Standard

I am trying to match "plan" dates in P6 to "start" or "actual Start" dates depending on the case using global change. For some reason "plan" dates do not change to "actual" dates despite committing to the global change. Was wondering if someone else has encountered the same problem and what measures you to make it work.

    if an activity has and actual

    if an activity has and actual start then the start date gets the A letter next to the date the same holds true for an activit yhaveing an actual finish date

    So run these 2 global changes

    Global change #1 for completed activities 

    Where activity status equals completed 

    then planned start = Start

    and planned finish =Finish

     

    Global change #2 for activities started but yet finished 

    Where activity status equals in progress 

    then planned start = Start

    Not sure if you meant "actual

    Not sure if you meant "actual start" instead of "start" - Nonetheless, I carried a global change using both criteria but no luck

    ****************

    Where Activity status = completed

    Then

    Planned Start = Actual Start

    Planned Finish = Actual Finish

    ****************

    Where Activity status = completed

    Then

    Planned Start = Start

    Planned Finish = Finish

    Despite running above crieteria I have couple activities, where Planned Start and finish does not match Actual Start and Finish resp.

    Any help  in this regard is appreciated
