project server training online - Current Date

Hi Richard,

Thanks for your question. One of the reasons you may wish to change the date in Project (Project menu > Project Information) is when you want to update progress (or work complete) on tasks as of a certain date. Project can be set to automatically move any remaining incomplete work to the new current date. This gives you a more accurate picture of how well the project was performing at that date.
Hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,

Andrew
