Why is my project’s end date in SmartPM different from Microsoft Project?
End date discrepancies often occur because SmartPM calculates project completion using actualized logic and accounts for activities that are in-progress, completed, or have different float. Common causes include:
- Manually scheduled activities that are not properly tracked.
- Summary tasks with inconsistent logic ties.
- Status date differences between SmartPM and MS Project.
- Incomplete or missing dependencies on critical path activities.
