Yep that does it.

but while doing global change consider including criteria for those milestone activities which may not have start dates(say finish milestones) or vice versa as u may require.



Conclusion : you can access few target parameters thru global change options.



cheers to all.

planning planet is really a dynamic forum.

In the custom data :

1) create an item name TASD , type S, length:7, Target actual start.



2) do a global change to store all Target actual start dates to TASD



3) Run a filter on TASD



You can repeat these steps to any date in the target.

Dear Johny



Could you further explain this.

I tried making a custom data item with "type start date" in the target project and ran a global change to make all activities with percent complete GT 0 to have this CDI to become Actual start date, but i cant access CDI from main project.

You can do it by:



1) creating custom data items corresponding to your Early and/or Actual dates in the Target project.



2) run filters on these Custom data items in the current project

Dear Ashraf



but this sometimes may not serve the purpose when we want to show all started activities in updated program along with the target.



usually some activities in updated program starts earlier than planned.

Hi,



You can do it otherway around i.e. make (1) the target of (2) and open all started activities of (2) by giving a filter %Comp >0.



Hope this helps ad the resultant filter will be the same as you require.
