Save a baseline

Set a status date

Show the Tracking Gantt View

Show the Tracking Table

Show the Tracking Toolbar

Format the Gridlines to show the Status Date as a vertical red line on the chart.



Now you have everything you need.

Get the hang of the buttons on the Tracking Toolbar.

Practice this with just 2 x 10 day tasks linked FS and the Status Date set to say the end of what should be Day 6.

Every bar tells a story. Make sure it tells the story of what happened and what remains to happen.

Hi Faisal,



Further to Trevor’s helpful offering :o)



Could you explain what you mean by track a project? Do you mean keeping the schedule up-to-date with project progress?



There are countless ways that you can update schedules using MS Project, so you’ll probably have to be a bit more specific if you want a sensible answer.



Regards,



Darren
