Reporting the progress on tasks

[Andrzej Jaworek]

When I create an enterprise project (this is the project that is edited
in Project 2007) I can decide which method I will use to allow users to
report the progress on tasks. But for operations work project (that
project is fully edited via PWA) there is only one method assigned:
percent of work complete. Why? This is a bug? Can I change this method
for operations work projects to of work done per day or week?

Sure you can decide between three methods, they are available for selection
into the PWA server settings, task settings and display, tracking method
section:
-percent of work complete
-actual work done and work remaining
-hours of work done per period

I think that you have the first one enabled.

Hope this helps

It sounds like you are using Activity plans. If this is the case, I believe
the only method of tracking for an Activity plan is is % Work Complete, and
you cannot change it to any other method. It is not a bug. It is by
design. Hope this helps.

Yes, exactly.

Our environment (PS2007) is currently set to the default Percentage of Work
Complete option. Is there any risk that we will lose any hours reported for
this fiscal year already with making a change in this area to one of the
other two options?
