Why is Actual Work updated when entering time into Work Field?

T

Tim Garvey

We're using MS Project 2007 and seeing that sometimes when time is entered
into the Work field for a task, that task's Actual Work is updated to the
same value entered in the Work field. This happens to multiple resources,
but only on some of their tasks and not on others. For example, for the
weeks of 1/24 and 1/31, whatever hours I schedule (enter in the "work" cell
in the Resource Usage View) for a given task also appears in the "actual"
cell.

The tasks are setup up differently. Some are Fixed Work, some are Fixed
Duration. I believe all have the effort driven check box checked. Why is
actual work in the future being automatically entered?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
