If you are using Microsoft Project as your scheduling tool, one reason that your Activity % Complete may be incorrect is if you have the Updating Task status updates resource status option (Options ยป Schedule) checked in Microsoft Project.
If you plan to update your resources, Deltek recommends deselecting the Updating Task status updates resource status. By default, this option is checked.
When progress is submitted, PM Compass updates task data first followed by resource assignment data. When the option in Microsoft Project is checked and you edit resource assignment data in PM Compass and submit progress, the resource data (Resource % Complete) overwrites the task data (Activity % Complete).
For example, if you enter 15% for task status and 30% for resource assignments, when progress is submitted, PM Compass overwrites the Activity % Complete value (15%) with the Resource % Complete value (30%). When the data is imported back into PM Compass, the task status is imported as 30%.
If you have a copy of Open Plan and you want to review the data that was exported to Microsoft Project Professional or Server, you can add a setting (_KEEP_MSP_OUTPUT_FILES) to the Open Plan System Preferences dialog box so that Open Plan creates temporary CSV integration files. For more information and steps, see View Data that was Exported to MSP.
