The Schedule % complete specifies how much of the activity's baseline duration has been completed so far. Computed based on where the current data date falls between the activity's baseline start and finish dates. If the data date is earlier than the Baseline Start, the Schedule % Complete is 0. If the data date is later than the Baseline Finish, the Schedule % Complete is 100. The Schedule % Complete indicates how much of the activity duration should be currently completed relative to the selected baseline.
The Performance % complete is used to compute earned value and may be based on the Activity% Complete, on the 0/100 rule, on the 50/50 rule which depends on the technique for computing earned-value percent complete for the activity's WBS. The Performance % Complete specifies what percentage of, the activities planned worth has been earned so far.
Having something quantifiable and measurable is always the best way to measure progress that could be manhours or commodities such as LF of conduit ect.
Performance Percent Complete for the activity is based on Units Percent Complete. Activities without a Resource curve assigned to one or more of the Resource Assignments will use the Activity percent complete
Dear Amir,
It’s not always necessary to use the global change for calculating % complete.
It depends on how you collect the information and howmuch and howmuch you want to enter in Primavera Enterprise.
With less information you can use the global change function to set things right and helps you to get your % complete (baseline and current).
Dear neeraj
thank you
you give me very nice advice.
before i start working with enterprise i woreked with planner as you know primavera planner has a base line percent complete column with this view i thought that i should find similar thing in the enterprise.but it seems that if i want to compare base line VS. schedule i must use global change to calculate bcwp/bcws!!!!
:) :) :)
Dear Amir,
In case you have not loaded any resource and cost and still want %progress, this will help you but it is not acccurate way.
At the very simplest, you can define a resource called "Time" in baseline and current schedule. Make BQ for this resource equal to OD using global change. organise using recource.
Make columns, BQWP & BQWS. Export to excel and create % using excel formulae for your resource "Time".
regards,
Neeraj
What you are looking for is:
Schedule % complete (this is the baseline)
Activity % complete (this is the current)
1 tip: if youre nog using price/unit for your resource define 1 (dollar or Euro etc.) per hour. For some calculations P3e needs costs instead of units. So when youre define 1 per hour it doesnt matter were youre looking at and the % complete will be good.

thanks for showing me some guideline.
but s-curve can not help me.look baseline might be your predict or situtation of three months ago.so when you want compare each task ,i think s-curve wouldnt help .
Hi Amir,
To see % actual versus planned, the best way is to use s-curves, for this you need to resource the schedule. My suggestion if you do not have resources allocated to the activities, is to create a dummy resource and use your durations as quantities. You have to make sure the resources are both in the current schedule as well in the target schedule. If you are not sure of how to create an s-curve or load resources, contact me and I will explain.
