To record the progress of the work made on tasks you need to modify the Percent Complete field for tasks. How can I start record the progress of the work made on the project? The distribution tries to add Actual Duration equally for each subtask which is scheduled as working starting from the Project Start Date.įor example, if we have a summary task with three subtasks: task1, task2 and task3 with the following durations: 2days, 3days and 4days and we set the Percent Complete field on summary to 50%, the first task will be 75% completed, the second task will be 50% completed and the third task will be 38% completed. If you type a value in the Percent Complete field in a summary task, Project Plan 365 automatically distributes the Percent Complete for subtasks. Remaining Duration = Duration – Actual Duration. In this case,Īctual Duration = Duration * Percent Complete and If you type a value in the Percent Complete field, Project Plan 365 automatically calculates actual duration and remaining duration. How are the Actual Duration and Remaining Duration calculated?


The % complete has the following formula % complete=(Actual Duration/Duration)*100. Percent Complete is a field that is calculated based on Actual Duration and Duration and it indicates how much progress has been made on the project or on tasks.
