How is the expected progress calculated?
The expected progress percentage is calculated based on forecasted dates (if project
default ZP_MS_FDPD is set to Y, this is the default) or planned dates (if project
default ZP_MS_FDPD is set to N). The following applies:
-
If no forecasted/planned start date or no forecasted/planned end date have been entered,
the expected progress is 0%.
-
If the current date lies before the forecasted/planned start date, the expected progress
is 0%.
-
If the current date lies after the forecasted/planned end date, the expected progress
is 100%.
-
If the current date lies between the forecasted/planned start and end date, the expected
progress is calculated on account of the current date and the number of days required
for this activity, using this formula:
((current date - start date) * 100) / (end date - start date)
-
If the forecasted/planned end date has expired and the actual progress of this activity
is not 100%, appears in the first column. Hovering over the icon shows an appropriate message.
