Re: Activty % complete moves after status date

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hello Terri,

Are you referring to the Progress Bar showing in the Gantt chart
which by default draws from the Actual Start to CompleteThrough? I
usually prefer drawing the progress bar from Actual Start through
Stop, which is the end of recorded progress.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Can anyone explain WHY Project moves the activity percent complete
past the
status date?? My staus is Complete Through Friday 5:00PM, when I
set the
status on an activity to Friday at 5:00PM, Project automatically
moves the
percent complete through SUNDAY 5:00PM, or if Monday is a holiday,
progress
move to Monday 5:00PM

Please don't tell me it is because Sat. & Sun. are not working
days. Status
date is Friday, progress SHOULD NOT move past that set date.

The only time this works correctly in Project is on an activity
with a 7 day
calendar.

I need a decent explanation for my PM (other than that's just what
Project
does) why progress is showing through Sunday when the status date
is Friday.
