Actual Work Entry

S

Scott McClure

We enter work via the Task Usage screen in Project Pro (2002). Sometimes it
seems to "not accept" our entry. Today we had a good example I can relate:

Task Work: 28.98 (Baseline is 29 but not sure what happened
to the .002)
Task Actual Work: 26.5

There are two resources assigned to the task:
Finishes (8 hour day)

Entered: 5.5 hours (this is the only entry of actual for this resource this
day)

Response: Changed Actual Work (entered) to .37 hours!!!! Changed Work to
29.18.

Operator reentered the 5.5 hours, overriding the .37 hours.

Response: Changed Work to 34.32 hours!

This is VERY confusing. Can anyone help us understand it?

Thanks,
Scott
