Dear MS Project Expert,
I am calculating the "planned % complete" with the next formula:
Left(str(IIf([Status Date]<[Start];"0";IIf([Status
Date]>[Finish];"1";ProjDateDiff([Start];[Status Date])/
[Duration]))*100);4)+"%"
I thought, that I was now able to compare the "planned % complete" and
the "real % complete" in my report for management. Unfortunately this
goes wrong in summary tasks. The "real % complete" of a summary task
is being calculated on the average weighted "real % complete" of the
tasks that form together the summary task. The "planned % complete" of
a summary task is being calculated on the Start Date, Duration and
Status Date of the Summary task. In cases where the big tasks are in
the end of the summary task, this wil lead to wrong conclusions.
Help!
Thanks in advance!
