Project End Date Doesn't Change with Progress Update

[droe655]

I'm having an issue where Task 7 and 8 had a FS relationship at the creation of the schedule but Task 8 has actually started ahead of time and has progress as does Task 7. My project should now finish early but Task 8s progress only shows starting at the completion of Task 7 so the overall schedule completion date does not change. Task 8 shows as a split task on the Gantt Chart. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @droe655 

Project maintains the logic of the link between tasks regardless of the successor task's actual Start date.

In this case, to get it back on track as you want, I suggest you first set the successor task to 0%, then remove its link to the predecessor, and finally re-enter the actual Start date and progress achieved.

I hope I've helped you.
