(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.

Hi All,

 

Can we show the % complete in tthe schedule by WBS and so get the overall % complete of the Project.

We would be updating the activity % complete but can the WBS show the oerall % complete based on the activity pogress %.

A schedule which has Engineering - Measured in Manhours, Procurement - Measured in Cost, Construction - Measured in Manhours.

I do make the OVerall % Complete and indivigual WBS % complete in Excel.

Waiting for your input. 

 

Thanks

Jithin

Procurement measured in cost sounds odd, would all depend on the project though.

You can use performance % complete which is the activity % complete  based on the Percent Complete type.

depending on P6 version your using, below P6v17xx or P6v16xx Performance % Complete - labour units is not available and only cost driven so I recommend to micmic the budget hours by setting $1 = 1 hour for Engineering and Costruction so you can have Overall % complete per WBS and overall using Performance % complete.
