Hi Leonard,



First of all, you need to set actual start to your activities then change the finish date, after that press F9 for schedule update & change the data date.



Now, try to notice that your actual units this period and actual units are the same when "link actual and actual this period units & cost" is tick, under the project deatils --> calculation tab. Likewise, this is only occur when your "Recalculate actual units and cost when duration % complete changes" is tick. Because, your calculation is based on duration % complete, performance % complete & activity % complete.



When it happens that your "Recalculate actual units and cost when duration % complete changes" is untick and you are trying to update your activities based on Physical % complete. Then you should have to input the actual units manually.



HTH.



Regards,



Arnold

Thanks Arnold for the info. I noticed after the manual update that on the earned value table, that budgeted labour units and remaining labour units are the same, even when the task 90% physical complete. Has this got to do with my setting.



I have done my calculation using FTC=Budgeted-EV where Act=0, But have found it difficult to correct on my plan.

Hi Leonard,



Physical % complete is users manual input. You need to feed the % complete of each activity or calculated based on activity’s weighted steps.
