Misconceptions about the S-Curves:

There is much misconception about the use and interpretation of the S-curves. I find the AACE International Recommended Practice No. 55R-09 is an incomplete document regarding S-Curve Analysis. It worries me that this document is promoting erroneous concepts about the use and interpretation of the S-Curves.

P6 "Remembering dates" Quirk

Ben Janes 👤 Member for 17 years 5 months

Primavera P6 V2

For example; activity A was previously finishing on 25th May but is now finishing on 20th May but the successor milestone is still being held out on the 25th May.
