Error description

  • 1) Create a Capital Project after entering all the required
    field values.
    
    2) Click Schedule tab and add tasks to Project Tasks Gantt
    section or from Project Tasks section.
    
    3) Set dependency between all tasks.
    
    4) Open a task and set actual start date.  Save and close the
    record.
    
    5) Change either Plan Start/Plan End or Calculate Project From
    value so that Project task Gantt section shows either
    Constraints or dependency error.   If Calculated Project From
    is set to Start change the Plan Start date to a future date
    than the current Calculated start value.If Calculated Project
    From is set to End, prepone the Plan End date or set an earlier
    Plan End date than current Plan End date.
    
    6) Click Fix Constraints or dependency error icon and click
    Save icon in Gantt section. Open the task that has Actual Start
    date set in step #4.
    
    Issue: Actual Start date value is cleared.  If Gantt updates
    Planned Start date of a task while correcting invalid
    dependencies in Gantt section, then the Actual Start date value
    gets cleared.
    

Local fix

  • NO
    

Problem summary

  • Actual % is 100% set the Actual Start Date, Actual End Date,
    Actual Working Hours, Actual Duration to Planned values
    Actual % is anything else > 0 set the Actual Start Date to the
    Planned Start Date.
    Actual % is 0 and Actual Start Date has a value set Actual
    Start Date to Planned Start Date otherwise leave it alone.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Gantt Scheduler will honor business logic from Tasks to keep
    Actual Start and Planned Start Dates in sync unless the Actual
    Start date is cleared.
    This is targeted to the 1h2017 release.
