Physical % Complete |
Physical % Complete |
If an activity has at least 1 step, the calculation for Physical % Complete uses the following calculation: Sum(step weight * Step %)/sum (step weight) If the activity has no steps, the Physical % Complete on the activity is updated if you update the Physical % Complete on the resource assignments. The numerous Unit and Cost Percent Complete fields are automatically calculated by Primavera P6 when the Resource Assignment Physical % Complete or the Remaining Units are updated. |

Remaining Duration |
Remaining Duration |
This is calculated based on the selected progress type. If you select a progress type of percent complete, the value entered is multiplied by the Planned Duration to determine remaining duration. If the progress type is elapsed duration, the remaining duration is calculated using original duration – elapsed duration. If the result is 0 or less for an in-progress activity, the calculated percent complete is used. When Remaining Duration is updated, Primavera P6 automatically calculates the Activity % Complete, Duration % Complete, and Performance % Complete fields. If the progress type is % Complete, the progress value returned is the Duration % Complete. |

Code 1 |
The Work Breakdown Structure in P6 is automatically mapped to the Code 1 field in PM Compass. |
Instead of using different fields, PM Compass has a progress type that indicates how the work that has been accomplished is measured for the activity. The Progress Type field is on the Enter Schedule Progress form.
The table below displays the Primavera P6 fields that are updated for the different progress types.

After the integration is performed, the progress type changes to Percent Complete and a percentage is added to the Progress Value column. |
