Entering Physical Percent Complete
Open Plan allows you to progress an activity by entering the physical percent complete (PPC) at either at the activity level or the resource level
You can use the Activity Progress dialog box to status an activity.
On the Activity tab, you can enter an actual start date and select one of the statusing methods.
On the Resources tab, you can enter the PPC for each resource, or you can have Open Plan calculate the PPC based on the activity progress. If you enter the PPC at the resource level, Open Plan calculates the activity PPC for you based on the rolled up earned value of each resource. If you enter the PPC at the activity level, Open Plan calculates each resource’s PPC with regard to duration, curve, offsets, and periods.
You can also have Open Plan calculate physical percent complete for you based on activity progress using the Progress Calculations dialog box.
