P6 Calculation fixed unit/Time

GOood morning ,

This is the question

I changed the data date and pressed F9 =>the remaining duration didn't changed but at complete duration increased

I want that remaining duration change automatically so the remaining units in ressources increase and the formula



AT COMPLETE DURATION =Actual duration+Remaining duration still correct


thanks

I would like to know how to copy the budgeted  units activity wise on a weekly timescale in P6

Yes, Am not aware of any other issues. So by populating the Expected Finish datem scheduling option automatically calculates the remaining duration & computes accordingly. So by this means, your Finish Date also will be accordingly updated.

Please let me know if this is not what you meant. Thanks!

Hi Somasundaram K,

I jump of your proposal and I would be interested to get any feedback.

To update my project, I am filling "Expected Finish" field (only activity started).

First consequence is to get FF=0 on this activty.

Is there any other consequence in scheduling ?

Is it a good practice to fill this field instead of modifying directly finish date ?



regards

Schedule using Expected Finish date field. That should solve your problem. Thanks!
