Per default the diagram starts with a view on the ‘Planned’ dates. By use of the controls on the top right this can be switched to the As-is View and a Control-View to compare the Planned and As-is time bars.

As-is View

 

The As-is view shows the ‘As-is’ dates of the activities.

The time bars contain as default (not configurable) the information of the ‘Status’ field.

Hint: If an ‘As-is’-End date is not known but an ‘As-is’-Start date was entered, the system estimates roughly the probable duration by using the duration what was ‘Planned’ and starting at the ‘As-is’-Start date.
To mark, that this is only an estimation, such time bars are shown in dotted yellow rectangles675010~1_img15
Remark:  For estimation of As-is duration no weekends, bank holidays, … are considered

 

Control View

The Control-View compares the Planned- and As-is dates in one view with different colours of the time bars.

But the fields necessary for the control of the progress of the Activities are editable in the data-table of the ‘Project plan’ Tab also:
