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.

Dear All

Would anyone be able to tell me how to set up a column to show the "Planned Percent Complete" of an activity on a given date in P3. The programme is not cost or resource loaded so it would just be the "Planned Percent Complete" of the time element of the activity that would be shown.

Any help to a new user would be gratefully appreciated.

Andy

Dear Andy,

There are 2 quickest ways for it:

1-Update your target schedule (or you can have a 2nd Target as a updating version) and use target percentage as a column directly.

2-(maybe CLIENT does not want you to touch their target) If all of your resource curves are linear. You can add a custom data item as planned percentage and write a global cange for it.
PLANED% - PLPC
TARGET S - TS
TARGET F - TF
Data Date - DD

Then PLPC=
IF DD is less than TS THEN 0
IF TS is less than DD is less than TF THEN (DD-TS)/(TF-TS)
IF DD is greater thanTF THEN 100

You need to run global change at every update.

Regards,

Safak
