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.

I wud suggest u to go for a filter with:

a) Longest PATH EQ YES
b) Early Dates WR ....... .......

If its a 40000 activity program & there is a major delay, then most of the activities finish date will definitely change.

Above two filters will give u the best result. Add BL start & finish AND varinace column.

If u want to create report, then u can go to TOOLS --> Reports --> Reports. U can have use standard reports or u can modify them as per your needs.

BTW, how many activities r there in ur program?

Cheers,

HI Raviraj,
Thanks for your reply. WHat exactly i want to do is:
I have a programme and we have a bi-weekly review meeting. I want to create a report which shows the activities which finish dates are changed from previous week. I can add column and compare, but i want to create a report, so i can run and present in a meeting.
Cheers!!

Hi Patel,

Do u want to comapre date by Date? Then add two more columns of BL1 Start & BL1 Finish. This will give you difference between target & current update dates.

You may also add VARIANCE COLUMN to compare the difference in days.

If u want to compare two different programs, then you may please use CLAIM Digger to compare required parameters.

Cheers,
