You can mark progress of the tasks or cost objects at a particular day/time by changing the Datadate field and progress fields in cost object and task subject areas. Once you pick a new data date and mark the actual start date of cost object or task, then run the scheduler, it calculates the progress fields and estimates the new start/finish dates on the scheduler chart.
The following progress fields are available for Cost Object and Task :
-
