Hello Planners!
I need advice to understanding Remaining / Actual / At Complete Units calculation. There is 40hrs long activity to which a labor resource is assigned with 40h budgeted units. Calendar is 5d x 8hr.
When activity started and DD moved 1 day ahead, I claim 20% Unit Percent Complete what makes Actual Labor Units=8h, Remaining Labor Units=32h and At Complete Labor Units=40h. However if I claim 40% Unit Percent Complete for the same DD - Actual Labor Units=8h, Remaining Labor Units=12h and At Complete Labor Units=20h. However I need that At Complete Labor Units are equal to the Budgeted Labor Units.
TASK SETTINGS:
- Activity Type=Task Dependent;
- Duration Type=Fixed Units;
- % Complete Type=Units.
WBS SETTINGS:
- Technique for computing Estimate to Complete (ETC): ETC=remaining cost for activity
PROJECT SETTINGS:
- Link Budget and At Completion for not started Activities = Checked;
- Subtract Actual from At Completion = Selected;
- Recalculate Actual Units and Cost when duration % complete changes = Checked;
- Link actual to date and actual this period units and costs = Checked.
