Hi,
The best advice I can give you is don't enter %complete. Use Actual Duration
and remaining duration, which can be enetred as precisely as One tenth of a
minute.

This question reminds me again of Lewis' statement in Project
Planning, Scheduling and Control in which he says something like,
"Giving powerful scheduling software to organizations who have no
knowledge of Project Management merely enables them to document their
failures with great precision." I can't imagine a scenario where
tracking to fractions of %complete or %Workcomplete would add
anything. In fact, I'd say that tracking to that degree of accuracy is
nearly impossible in any real situation I've ever been involved in.
And if you could, think of how many manhours would be lost to tracking
it! This sounds like a classic case of penny-wise and pound-foolish or
better yet, looking down at your feet to count the footsteps it takes
to get to the mountain and not noticing that you are now headed to the
sea! Best of luck to this person/organization.
