| # Project Scheduling Project Schedule status helps a project manager track the project schedule and identify variances, if any, for the project. The Project Scheduling report allows you to review the project performance with respect to the schedule adherence. The Project Scheduling report displays the following data: Baseline: Approved project baseline. Base Line Start Date: Start date of the activity as defined in the baseline. Base Line Finish Date: End date of the activity as defined in the baseline. Actual Start Date: The date on which the activity starts. Expected Finish Date: The date when the activity is expected to be completed. This date can be different than the Base Line Finish date. Actual Finish Date: The date on which the activity is completed. Start Variance: The number of days by which the activity starts prior to or later than the planned date. Start Variance = Baseline Start Date - Actual Start Date Finish Variance: The number of days by which the activity is expected to finish prior to or later than the planned date. Finish Variance: Baseline Finish Date - Expected Finish Date To generate the report: Specify the range of data for which you want to generate the report. Review the schedule. Note: The Expected Finish Date can be specified by the user. Review the graphical representation of the project schedule performance using the Pie diagrams for the activities and milestones completed / yet to be completed. |
