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.

Hi Planners

Total float for activities dont reflect correct picture while we use progress override option in scheduling. Why is this so, can anyone pls explain.

Total float computation will be different for progress override and retained logic. Both will be correct, depending on your perspective.

The problem here is that you can only set one option to apply to ALL activities. It would have been nicer to apply different options to different activities.

So, with the current state of things, you need to decide which one to use. Retained logic gives you a more conservative projection of how things are going to be. So if you want to be on the safer side, user retained logic.
