% Complete in Decimals

Hello Vishwas,



Agree with Jorge & others too... why not export the value in excel? you can customize in a much better presentation too...



Cheers!

Hi frank

I am waiting for your softwar

at [email protected]

thanks

If you require PCT in decimals, I assume that your progress is based on cost. If so, just get the earned value and divide it by either the original total budget or by the EAC (estimate at completion). This way, you can get the PCT at any number of decimal places.



Simple, right?



Best regards,



Jorge

Frank, you are welcome to post your tool (as an attachment) for all to use in our templates / files forum.

Good Morning Frank,



Still haven’t received the software tool. Appreciate if you could forward to all the requested planners for our review.



Regards.

Frank



I can see you becomes the favour of the week. :-)



BTW I would like to ask the real needs of having 2 decimals place in a project plan??



Is a schedule a preceision tool?



What is the benefits of having 0.01% complete. How accurate is the original individual activities % estimate.

And how accurate you want to get in the summary of these % estimate?



Thanks in advance

Pls add me in the list too Frank, email id - [email protected]



Thanks and Cheers

Shahzad,



Tool was written to allow customer in defence to update WBS % completes quickly and accurately. They would organize by WBS (total at top) and then key the summarized % complete from the organized band into the WBS activity normally immediately below as layout is also sorted by early start. Since schedule is 20,000+ activities this was time consuming and error prone so we wrote the tool to automate this process.



Vishwas B’s original post details why he wants two decimals and since we have a tool that already does the calculations and updates it would be very simple to store the result in a custom data item field to two decimals.



I agree that rounding % complete to a whole number is what P3 provides and is usually sufficient. In fact when we update the WBS activity % complete that is what is displayed.

Hi frank



By your given option, it is determined that without usage of software tool, progress in decimal cannot be ascertained in P3 itself.



Moreover what is its main effect if we take into account the progress in decimal? for precision purpose or any other



Common practice is that progress is usually measured in rounded figure.

We have a software tool that operates as an add-in to P3 and re-calculates the % complete on WBS activity types based on the Summarization Option (duration/resource/cost). It would be very simple to store the result in a custom data item field to two decimals.



Contact [email protected] if you are interested.

Can you have a more granular grouping of your activities and montor their % complete, instead of the one at the high level?

me too. I would like to try that one. can u send it to me also, [email protected]
