Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we deliver the project

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.

Owner looked at schedule and asked why there were late dates on items with Actuals - what do you say? what do you do?

Owner looked at schedule and asked why there were late dates on items with Actuals - what do you say? what do you do? - because it is true, it does not make sense.  I assume people copy the dates to a column and delete them in the udf column - but sounds like a huge hassle -  is there an easier way?  is this something Oracle should fix - I guess I always just ignored it.

if an activty is complete it still has an original late date even thought this is no longer part of the total float calculations. However if activities are in progress its has a remaining late finsh date. For activites that are COMPLETED there is not and Remaining Late Finish date so it might be best to show the remaining late finish date column.

If the activity is complete there is no remaining late date. If the activity is in progress with float then it has remaining late dates.
