Microsoft Project Server - Actual Work Protected vs Work

[Eric]

Hi, let's say that I have a schedule with a task that has a "Work" value of
100 hours.

My employee logs 150 hours on this task, and I approve it.

Will this task show 100 hours, or 150 hours in the Actual Work field in the
"Task Usage" view?

Thank you.
Eric

Hello Eric,

Definitely, this task will show 150 hours of Actual Work in Project Pro.

Eric --

In the future, please post your Project Server questions in the
microsoft.public.project.server newsgroup, as this newsgroup is dedicated to
the Microsoft Project desktop application only. To answer your question,
you will see 150 hours in the Actual Work field in the Task Usage view.
Remember that in Microsoft Project, Actual Work always replaces planned
Work. The only way to see the original planned Work on the task is to view
the Baseline Work for the task, assuming you saved a Baseline for your
project, of course. Hope this helps.
