Why would I Do This?

• To track project progress– Task level– Assignment level

• Requires assigned resources

– Time period

• Using different viewing options


Visual SummaryBaseline – original information to track progress


Editing and Replacing Task Information and Checking Spelling

• Effort-driven scheduling– Default setting

• Resource adjustments– Reflected in overall project

completion dates


Task Usage View

Spell Check


Saving A Baseline


Print Baseline Data• Hide Gantt Chart portion of the

Tracking Gantt View• Ready for print


Entering Percent Complete

• Task Information dialog box

• Tracking toolbar


Tracking Toolbar Up Close


Viewing Percent Complete

• Easiest methods– Gantt Chart– Percent complete column

• Background calculations– Actual duration– Remaining duration

Adding Percent Complete Column


Entering Actuals

• Alternate work progress tracking– Actual work– Finish dates– Work durations

• Related fields automatically updated


Modifying Task Information

Using the Tracking Table


Specifying Lead and Lag Time

• Lead time– Task overlap– Negative number

• Lag time– Time needed between tasks– Positive number


Create Lead/Lag Time


Resolving Constraint Conflicts And Setting A Task Deadline


Constraint Date Table

Results of removing a constraint


Deadlines

• Target dates– Task Information dialog box
