Primavera P6 Professional 14 - Updating project progress Schedule
Here’s a description of how the process typically works:
Open the Project: Start by selecting the project you want to update within Primavera P6 Professional 14.
Update Activity Status: The key part of updating the schedule is recording the actual progress of each activity. This involves:
Actual Start and Finish Dates: If any tasks have started or finished, update these dates.
Percentage Complete: For ongoing activities, you’ll update the percentage complete to show how much work has been done.
Remaining Duration: Adjust the remaining duration based on the current progress. If an activity is delayed or completed earlier than expected, this will help reflect that in the schedule.
Use Progress Update Methods: Primavera P6 offers different methods for updating progress, such as:
Manual Update: Directly enter actual dates, durations, and percentage completion.
Earned Value Management: This method calculates the progress based on the budgeted cost of work performed.
Update Constraints: If the project’s constraints have changed (such as deadlines or milestone dates), these should also be updated to reflect any changes in project scope or external factors.
Resource and Cost Updates: If resources are assigned to tasks, ensure that the resource usage and associated costs are also updated to reflect actual consumption.
Schedule Recalculation: After entering the updated progress data, the schedule is recalculated, which may result in changes to the project’s finish date, critical path, or task dependencies.
Review and Adjust: Finally, review the updated schedule to ensure that it accurately represents the current state of the project. Adjust if necessary.
