first you determine your self , how you want to update your project,

is that schedule have fixed resource or fixed duration.

best practice is herego

1- duration type       ===== fixed duration and unit

 

2-Percent type       ====== Duration for engineering & procurement activity,

                                           Physical for construction activity.

 

3-Activity type ==========  Task Dependent ,  ( for mile stone depends start MS or Finish MS )

 

with this setting you need to update your schedule based on your physical judgement or progress measurement sheet,

update with Phy %  value , remaining duration,  start date , etc,

resource update actual unit and remaining units..
