Monitoring Progress
Is the main idea of MS Project that it is used just for planning projects, or is it perfectly acceptable to tweak the times it is ACTUALLY taking to complete tasks if your original estimates were not accurate?
RE: Monitoring Progress
Hi Alix
Thank You for your question
Project is as much a project tracking tool as it is a project planning tool, and it is very much acceptable to alter your actual times to reflect changes.
Once you have baselined the project, it is assumed that any changes you make reflect what is actually happening in the real world, and project will reflect in the tracking Gantt these changes and how they have affected the project's progress.
Regards
Stephen
