Part 6 · Management and Tracking of the Project

Question 3

A 6 day task is tracked using the Update Tasks form.  Values are entered thus:
     95% Complete; 7d Actual Duration; 3d Remaining Duration.
What will the result be in MS Project?

Duration%CompleteAct. Dur.Rem. Dur.
A10 d 95% 7 d 3 d
B10 d 70% 7 d 3 d
C10 d 95% 9.5 d 0.5 d
D7.35 d 95% 7 d 0.35 d
E60 d 95% 57 d 3 d

Answer: CorrectIncorrect

Project will always produce a result that makes mathematical sense.  This means it will reject the assumption that you are 95% complete with 7 days done and still 3 remaining.

Project will always produce a result that makes mathematical sense.  When all three values are entered it rejects the %Complete and calculates this value from the actual and remaining values entered.

Question 4

Project will always produce a result that makes mathematical sense.  When all three values are entered and they do not add up, the actual and remaining values take preference over the %complete.  In this answer the %complete and the remaining are causing a recalculation of the actual as well as the duration of the task.
