Using MS Project to indicate Task Slippage in a Gant Chart

Gant Diagram Training Objective:

Teach how to present assignment slippage on the next row of the Gant Diagram based upon the current schedule without resetting the task start date:

With a Gant chart that has already been baselined :
One of the assignments has a projected beginning date of 10/22 finishing on 10/24. As of today, 10/27, the assignments didn't kick-off yet.

The final Gant Diagram should present:

• Baseline beginning 10/22 - baseline completion 10/24
• Re-Forecasted beginning 10/27 - completion 10/29.

Process:

The first step is to perform schedule maintenance in Microsoft Project so that:

1. No unstarted work remains prior to the Date used for Status
2. No unfinished effort remains with a completion date prior to the Date used for Status.
3. No Actual Begin Date is later than Date used for Status.
4. No Actual End Date is later than Date used for Status.

Without having Project use % Completed to perform schedule maintenance, Project won't be able to figure out how to help you.

Here are several ways to output the desired Gant view:

• View/Tracking Gant:
  Project displays a view with the Gant lines for both baseline and current schedule forecast right after one another.
  
• Select Format/Gant Chart Wizard:
  Select Baseline and go on from there.
  
• Tools/Tracking/Update Project:
  Select the menu item to reschedule incomplete work so that it starts after mm/dd/yyyy
  Fortunately, Microsoft Project supplies the status date as part of the process.
