Hassan,



Yes you can. If you planned it late. Just make two (2) targets. One early target and one late target (just make sure you can get approval for your late target).



this is free anyway...

Hassan,



You can make as many target project as you like, but actuals are actuals. You can never have two actual start or actual finish for the same activity at the same time.



Updating Target is realizing your plan. Modeling it as if it actually happened.



Then compare it with your current project (which is your actual one), a dynamic project that reflects your actual resources and performance.



hope this explains my view...

i guess nobody is planning to be late! just in case, make all your activities critical (in target project), that means zero total float for all the activities! and update it..



i hope it works

Hi



Target % will only show if you copy your schedule as target then compare it to the current schedule update as of D.D.( data date).. Menu..Tools > look for target in sub menu...

Mr. Basel



Planned Progress will come only if you have a Target assigned and Update the target programme through update progress as on data date.( No manual work)



Hope i am right.

This is Autocost Rule #1. Select Tools / Options / Autocost Rules. The Un-check the first rule, "Link remaining duration and scheudle percent complete." Good luck!
