Total Planned % complete formula

According to Primavera KnowledgeBase 1999492110554, the formula is: -
(sum of OD’s - sum of RD’s)/(Sum of OD’s)

[(sum of OD’s - sum of RD’s)/(Sum of OD’s)]*100 <---you missed it.

When I am managing serious projects I calculate 4 percent completes:

1. The % of the original duration
2. The % of deliverables completed
3. The % of cost expended
4. The % of hours of labour or mobile equipment consumed

The comparison of the four percentage completes is very useful.

I normally use the P3 % complete for the % of duration, unlink % Complete and Remaining Duration and turn off all the Autocost Rules, I may enter the recorded cost and hours consumed and estimated to complete.

I use global changes to calculate the other three in custom data items.

There is an article titles The Practical Application of Earned Value which is on my web site which outlines some of these techniques.
