P6 Calculating (apparently incorrect) variances

I'm tearing whats left of my hair out here.

I'm trying to set up a variance layout to assist with a delay report I'm writing.

The issue I have is the variances P6 is calculating seem incorrect, in some circumstances looking approximately double the difference between the calendar dates.

The activities are on a 24hr calendar, could this explain the issue?

Cheers in advance, Andy.
