(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.
Small world! Hows work nowadays?
Typical projects are not typical at all. Project reporting depends on what you want, or what the PMT and those on the top level wants. Procurement and engineering differs as well.
I suggest you read about EVM.
