Tips on using this forum..

(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.

Greetings Planners

I am updating a baseline schedule, some of the activities that have actual start but not yet completed, their bar after the data date bar is not continous, there is a space between the data date and then the bar for the next period starts.

Is there any explanation for this.

Regards,

Muataz

You have retained logic running through the predecessors of that task, check the relationships have been upheld as you've enterered the actual dates.

Hi Zoltan,

Won't changing Actual Work setting to Current Bar make it show progress beyond data date?

Moutaz,

Most likely the your calendar start time is 08:00 while your data date time is 00:00
