Hi.
Our project schedule was developed some time before the earned value
milestone reporting requirements were agreed. The issue then is that the
schedule doesn’t directly collapse to each of the earned value milestones. I
need to calculate the % complete of each milestone. Since the tasks relating
to each milestone are scattered throughout the schedule, % complete for each
milestone needs to be calculated from a collection of individual activities
at different levels in the schedule.
I have located a formula from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/101495/en-us.
Does this apply to MS Project 2003? When I attempt to validate this formula
using my own schedule it works for higher level subtasks (level 3/4/5) but
when it comes to level 1 and 2 it does not seem to hold. How does MS Project
2003 calculate % complete? and is the method consistent through the levels?
Any information about % complete will be appreciated.
