Group Processing Resource Progress (Batch Mode)

You can also perform progress calculations in Batch Mode.

This allows you to run time analysis for multiple projects at one time. To run progress calculations in Batch Mode, select more than one project from the Details pane of the Open Plan Explorer, and click the Progress Calculations button. The Progress Calculations [Batch Mode] dialog box will be displayed. Set your options, and click OK.

If a project is closed, Open Plan will open it in Exclusive mode, perform the process, save the changes, and then close the project. If a project cannot be opened in Exclusive mode (because another user has it open in Exclusive or Shared mode), it will be skipped.

If you have a project open when the batch process is run, a progress calculation will be performed on the project, but the changes will not be saved and the project will remain open. You must manually save the changes yourself.

Resource progress can be calculated automatically for multiple projects by selecting a group of projects and clicking the Progress Calculations button on the Processes tab.

Open Plan creates one progress calculation session log, listing the project results in the order in which the projects were processed in the batch.
