(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.
Hii,
I get 0 duration % complete for one particular set of activity codes at the WBS level, but all other activities which are in progress/ completed rolls up to some value in the WBS level.
The activity type assiged is Fixed Durations & Units for all activities.
Please advice.
Paul

I am not sure what you are trying to summarize in terms of % complete but some things can not be summarized by % complete becasue you can use 3 different types of % complete. Duration % Complete, physical % complete and unit % complete by tring to do this would be like mixing apples, oranges and pears.
The summary band for either Schedule % complete or Performance % complete will always be calculated as
(BCWS * 100) /BAC so it would be Budgeted Cost for Work Scheduled times 100 divided by Budget at Completion
I am using Duration % complete.
if you are using physical % complete you can run a global change
where
duration % Complete equal physical % complete
I ran the Global change. But then the other WBSs which were showing some value for Duration % complete also increased to a non realistic value (66%), where most of the activities are not yet started / completed.
The program is not resource and cost loaded and hence i cant get the performance % complete.
Could you please suggest any other solution.
Thanks,
Paul.
Your Original duration and your remaing durations are equal causing the % complete to be equal.
Hence Performance % = Activity % Complete = Duration % Complete = (OD - RD) /OD = 0%
to fix this run a global change
where
planned start = start
planned finish = finish
this will allow the WBS summary activity to calculate a correct Percent complete value
