I am trying to match "plan" dates in P6 to "start" or "actual Start" dates depending on the case using global change. For some reason "plan" dates do not change to "actual" dates despite committing to the global change.
Was wondering if someone else has encountered the same problem and what measures you to make it work.

yes here is the secification
Where Activity status = completed
Then
Planned Start = Start
Planned Finish = Finish
****************
Where Activity status = completed
Then
Planned Start = Start
Planned Finish = Finish
Not sure if you meant "actual start" instead of "start" - Nonetheless, I carried a global change using both criteria but no luck
****************
Where Activity status = completed
Then
Planned Start = Actual Start
Planned Finish = Actual Finish
****************
Where Activity status = completed
Then
Planned Start = Start
Planned Finish = Finish
Despite running above crieteria I have couple activities, where Planned Start and finish does not match Actual Start and Finish resp.
Any help in this regard is appreciated
if an activity has and actual start then the start date gets the A letter next to the date the same holds true for an activit yhaveing an actual finish date
So run these 2 global changes
Global change #1 for completed activities
Where activity status equals completed
then planned start = Start
and planned finish =Finish
Global change #2 for activities started but yet finished
Where activity status equals in progress
then planned start = Start
