General Tab - Schedule Table

The Schedule Table in the General Tab shows you your Baseline Schedule Start and Finish dates and compares it when your Project actually Started and when it is projected to Finish

 

The information you will see in this table is:

Original Start Date – This date is based on the earliest original planned date based on the current Baseline

Original Finish Date – This date is based on the latest original planned date based on the current Baseline

Original Duration = Original Start Date – Original Finish Date

• Developer's Tip: For all Original Dates and any calculations using them, a complete Baseline Schedule of all Activities must be set for this calculation to take place. If there are Project Schedule Activities not Date Stamped, a link that says “Not Set” will appear in place of the calculated figure that directs the User to the Date Stamp window

Current Start Date –This date is based on the earliest projected or actual historical date

Current Finish Date – This date is based on the latest projected date. If all Activities have been completed, it will be based on the last actual date

Current Duration = Current Start Date – Current Finish Date

Start Date Variance = Original Start Date – Current Start Date

Finish Date Variance = Original Finish Date – Current Finish Date (Projected or Actual)

Duration Variance = Original Duration – Current Duration (Projected or Actual)
