% Complete as seperate bar

HELLO FRIEND I AM MILIND

WHAT TYPE OF DOUBT U FOUNF IN PROGRESS CANTROL

U CAN COMPARE THE % COMPLITION IN PRIMAVERA P3

MAKE A CDI(COSTUM DATA ITEM) FOR EG PPC(pLAANNED % cOMPLETE) IN ACTIVITY COSTUM DATA



FOR / IN URS CURRENT PROJECT

GO FOR GLOBAL CHANGE

MAKE 3 GLOBAL CHANGES Tar 1 is urs Baseline program

1)PPC= 0 %

URS FORMULA IS

IF DD(Data Date) is less than T1ES (Target1 ES)

then PPC =0



2) PPC =100 %



IF DD IS Grater than T1EF (Target 1 EF )

Then ppc =100



3 If DD is Grater than TAR1 ES

& DD is Less than TAR1EF



(make &Q1 ,&Q2 to variable)



Then &Q1 = DD - TAR1 ES

&Q2 = &Q1 / T1OD ( tar 1 orignal duration)

PPC = &Q1 *100



After running all 3 sets of global change u will deffinatelty get the planned percentage complition at centen data date

or it is the estimated percentage comption to the baseline project

then u can campare the progress of the current project

with baseline Planned percentage complition

or mail me pandhare_milind@yahoo.co.in

i will explain u in brif how to do this in primavera

Well just to Close this Thread and publish the Answer to all the Unbelievers.



Step 1 = Assign a Target Schedule

Step 2 = Format Bars (Delete All Existing Bars)

Step 3 = Create 2 New target Early bars (Position 1 & Poistion 2)

Step 4 = Bar 1 Remove Progress / Criticcal etc

Step 5 = Bar 2 Make Colour White & Show Progress

Step 6 = Show Progress By % Complete



And you have two bars just like MS.



If you want a Status Line (Go Out and Buy yourelf a Ruler/stencil/Pen)



Cheers

Hi Mary Jo,

Hi Mary



No one will not overwrite 2 because remember you apply different filters to them. (Filter 1 = Actualy Complete) Filter 2 In Progress.



% Complete (If % & RDU is Linked) will be up to data Date. Remember P3 Schedule your Current schedule (Recalculate your schedule). And your baseline is in a Target Schedule.





Cheers



If you want PP me your email and I can send you an XL file with Pictures

Hi Mary



It Takes you Five Minutes and you save the Layout. (Rememeber you use Global Change to do the date MODS once You have done it then in Future you Just Transfer it. (You don do it per Activity.)



PP me your email address and I will send you an Detail Explanition (With Pictures (Print SCreen) in xls)

Hi Mary

This Function does actualy not make sense because in P3 Progress is between your actual start & DATA Date. (Schedule). IN MS it does not work this way except.



MAKE A COPY FIRST



But How to fix this (if you insist)



1) Make Two Global Changes.



1.1 = Make all completed activity

Planned Start = Actual Start

Planned Finish = Actual Finish



1.2) Make all Activity in Progress

Planned Start = Actual Start

Planned Finish = Data Date



2) Then you Create a bar Move it to Desired Position Make Start = PLST Make Finish = PLFN



And you have your second Progress Line



Then all you need to do is play with the Bars (Size & Position) until you have the required effect.



I hope this helps. (I Still think It Does not Make sense)

You could define a custom bar.

Dear Mary,



If you are working on P3, it doesn’t have this option as the structure is fixed and defined for bars with dates (start & finish). What you can do only is to label below the activity bar with %.

However in P3e, this option is available and you can do it easily in the bar feature.



Hope this will help you completing your job.
