Have a look at a paper that I co-presented at the 2009 AACE International Conference called " Understanding P6 Dates." I think that that should help answer your question. It is much more complicated that you would imagine.

Irfan,

Early start is the earliest start date where activity starts and early finish is the earliest finish date where activity finishes.

When planner develop the schedule this is the planned date = early date = start date.

Start date is the current date. When activities have start progressing start date become actual date and early start = Remaining Start
