Checking if your project is ‘on schedule’
First of all, save your MS-project plan as the changes you are about to make need to be discarded afterwards.
In the Gant chart view, add column “%work complete” (when not yet visible). Make sure you have all tasks under a single task summary (so you see the %work complete for the project). To check what the %complete should be at this point in time go to “tools >tracking>update project…>update work as complete through>set 0-100% complete (use the date for which you want to do the analysis – e.g. the last date that the plan was updated).” This will cause the % to change to what is expected. You can toggle between undo and redo to spot where the differences are. |
