As earlier suggested you can use the log record, however the shortcoming of this method is that you will have to manually enter the percentage complete in the log record for each activity every time you update your schedule.
The best alternative is to format the bar labeling to display the percentage complete against the bar. This method is automatic i.e. you do not need to enter the percentage complete manually each time your schedule is updated.
To do this go to Format select Bars (in the window make sure the early bar is selected i.e the bar that displays your progress) click on Modify select Label. Here you choose the position to display the percentage complete (since you want it at the bottom you can choose from Bottom, Bottom left, Bottom right)under Data select Percentage complete. You would also the sample of the data to be displayed at the end in a window provided.
Hope this meets your requirements. Please get back to me if otherwise.
