Tips on using this forum..

(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.

The issue is related with Time of the day... When ever updating any activity, consider the time start and time finish of activity.

For started activities if you do no change remaining duration the finish date will usually be delayed after re-scheduling run to be DD+remaining duration unless any other reason such as out-of-sequence rules takes over and delays it even further.
