hi,
have you found the way to change the schedule percent complete based on late dates.
i also tried to find it but found nothing in p6
it is possible through excel

many thanks
rizwan

we have an option to get performance % complete – labor units. is there an option to get planned % complete – labor units on a selected data date?

kindly guide me, as our project schedule is loaded with labor units for monitoring purpose.

thanks and best regards,

could you help me sir,
how to create/show in primavera p6 progress last week?
for example my progress this week is 15%, and progress last week is 10%.
i want to show the progress last week & progress this week in primavera.

thank a lot sir,

i want to get the planned % units corresponding to the updated date kindly explain me is schedule %will give the same if my activity is only loaded with manpower without giving any cost.

how can we get p6 to use late dates to calculate schedule % complete on late dates?

ideally, we would like to see schedule % complete based on both early and late dates for prudent analysis of the required performance.

i wan unable to find an option to select late dates to change the default from early dates. appreciate if you can assist.

you probably do not have cost assigned or a measurable unit assigned to your activities. try assigning cost even as low as 1currency value, it will surely roll up.

if we have two 世界杯时间比赛时间 in schedule one is labor (assigned budgeted units as man-hours to each activity) other is cost for each activity as a separate non-labor resource.

based on above info how the schedule % complete info drives , how it will be calculated. if we want to drive the physical progress based on labor means man-hours.

thanks

thanks

“task b – fabricate and deliver to site” with alap constraint is linked to “task c – equipment installation”. task b follows “task a – shop drawings approved” which has considerable float-the reason i’m using alap constraint. however, task b is picking up tf of task c which is in critical path. is there a setting in p6 that i need to change in order that task b could start earlier and remove it from critical path? more so, task b has plenty of float in front of it.

thanks.

yes, early dates are used by default.

thank you for sharing.
schedule % complete(act) = ( [data date] – [baseline start] ) / ( [baseline finish] – [baseline start] )
in this formula, if the activity is not critical, there will be early and late dates. as a result, in a specific time we will have tow values of schedule% complete, early & late, p6 uses early dates by default am i correct?

thanks again.

in that case target schedule will work as baseline and all the calculation will be based on that.

need your kind help in this regard

do you have cost loaded on the schedule?

actually i have a problem for the schedule percent complete, our consultant don’t get the same % on the wbs level.

on activity level, we have the same schedule % complete, same cost, wbs total cost also same.

our wbs % complete is correct because manual calculation give the same value.

so, where is the problem? why we haven’t the same value?

thank you in advance for your help.

best regards.

i have a question … i need to get my schedule % complete with the curve of resource of activity … so i put a kind of curve with my own % curve, then i save the baseline and the i use in project baseline but when i upload to my data date, my activity that is duration type show me in schedule % complete the % of the duration of the activity and i want the % of my curve of the resource. how can i get this percentage in my schedule % complete?

thank you

i think when you make update ,the bac. is not change but the actual and remaining budgeted cost is change due to update

i’d like to thank you so much for your helpful information.
but i face a problem when i do schedule for my updated schedule, the cash flow for the entire project change automatically at each update, which gives me a wrong schedule% to compare with performance or physical%.
how could i keep my base cash flow fixed during all project period.

regards,

cheers mate

thanks for the information

no, not a complete one yet… just that short ebook about progresses.

hi joey, we have more ebooks in the works. but for now, feel free to peruse and print from our library of tutorials and articles.

just wandering, if you have a compete e-books for the application of p6

dear huda,
the performance % complete article will be published in near future. please re-visit the site or subscribe to its feed to be informed of the new articles.

yes, it’s always the case in planning world: non-working times are not counted (as briefly discussed in part 2 of this article).
[finish]-[start]-[non-working-time] is not an appropriate syntax for it and [finish]-[start] is common. we actually define the “-“ operator in a way that does not count non-working times.

[baseline finish] – [baseline start] is not always equal to original duration.

–3–
when your activities’ costs are front loaded, you have the potential of having the second scenario. an extreme example: we have a wbs element with three activities. all the activities start in day one and have at least two days baseline duration. their costs are all in their start. ok, what happens when we pass day 1? wbs element’s schedule % complete would be 100%, but its activities are all less than 100%.
