Hierarchy of Percent Complete Overrides

A graphical summary of the percent complete hierarchy shows which percent complete value takes precedence when more than one percent complete value has been defined for the project.

Overall Percent Complete

The overall percent complete for the entire project overrides all other percent complete values.

You enter the overall percent complete for the entire project in the Overall % Complt field on one of the four tabs of the Project Budget Worksheet (Labor Costs, Expense Costs, Labor Billing, and Expense Billing).

Overall Labor Percent Complete and Overall Expense Percent Complete

If you define both an overall labor percent complete and an overall expense percent complete, Deltek uses these values together to compute the overall percent complete for the project. In this case, Deltek ignores individual percent completes for labor and expense budgets.

  • Define the overall labor percent complete in the Lab % Complt field on the Labor Billing tab or Labor Costs tab.
  • Define the overall expense percent complete in the Exp % Complt field on the Expense Billing tab or Expense Costs tab.

Overall Labor Percent Complete and Individual Expense Percent Complete

If you define an overall labor percent complete, Deltek uses this value for your labor budget and uses the individual percent completes defined for your expense budget.

You define the overall labor percent complete in the Lab % Complt field on the Labor Billing tab or Labor Costs tab.

Overall Expense Percent Complete and Individual Labor Percent Complete

If you define an overall expense percent complete, Deltek uses this value for your expense budget and uses the individual percent completes defined for your labor budget.

You define the overall expense percent complete in the Exp % Complt field on the Expense Billing tab or Expense Costs tab.

No Overall Percent Completes Defined

If you have not defined an overall percent complete, an overall labor percent complete, or an overall expense percent complete, Deltek uses the individual percent completes defined for your labor and expense budgets.
