How go you manage progress?

RE: Estimated Days

Hi Anthony

thank you for your question.
A great way to record progress is to use the update tasks feature. You can get to this either from the Tracking toolbar (View > toolbars > tracking) or from the Tools menu (Tools > Tracking > Update tasks)

The dialogue box that appears lets you record Actual duration and Remaining duration. Updating these values allows project to mark progress and also adjust the plan so you get a good idea of what's really happening to your project as things progress.

Lastly you may prefer to use the tracking table (right click on the select all square above row 1 and then from the list choose the Tracking table).

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew
