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.

Good day Gentlemen,

I would like to know why P6 show late dates eventhough the activity is comlete. From memory, in P3 whenever an activity is completes, the late start/finish date would either be empty or show the actual dates.

Is this normal?

Regards,

Brian

Yes, it’s by design. If an activity has an actual finish, the algorithm doesn’t touch it and leaves the late finish. You can use it to compare with original planning. The field "Finish" turns from early to actual finish.
