(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Changing duration type from duration % complete to physical % complete is a 3 step process.
1st filter for ALL activities then add a column and expand General category and select duration type
now in the duration type column select Percent complete and then do a fill down (this changes the duration % complete type for all EXISTING activities to Physical % Complete).
2nd go to the Projects directory and make sure that your project is highlighted click on the Defaults tab and change the Percent Complete Type to Physical (this changes the duration % complete type for all NEW activities to Physical % Complete).
3rd go to tools global change and NEW on the right hand side.
up top under Select Subject Area make sure that it is Activities then add this specification
Where Duration % Compete is greater than 0
Then
Physical % Complete = Duration % Complete
then select change then lower right select Commit Changes
Done
Dear All,
Thank you for reply i will use physical % only but now i already assign as duration % complete can i chage it to physical % complete?

There is no switch in P6 David hit the nail on the head you will have to use physical % comeplete if you do not want the % to update the remining duraiton or vice versa.
Since there is no switch if you use DURATION % complete it must update the remaining duration and vice versa
Kamesh,
This is a HUGE subject, especially if you come from a P3 background.
In p6 "duration % complete" = RD
You will almost certainly want to change to Physical % complete...... but that is only the start of the story.
