|
| Actual
Start Date |
The
actual start date of the task in the project
schedule.
To
change the start date, click the arrow on the right
side of the Start cell, and select a date in the calendar.
When
you change the start date, the task moves to the
selected date in the Gantt chart. The duration of
the task remains the same, so the task is not
resized.
|
| Actual End
Date |
The
actual end date of the task in the project
schedule.
To
change the end date, click the arrow on the right
side of the End cell, and select a date in the calendar.
When
you change the end date, the duration of the task
changes accordingly in the Gantt chart, and the task
is resized.
|
| Actual
Duration |
The
actual duration of the task in the project
schedule.
To
change the duration, type a new value in the
Duration cell.
When
you change the duration, the end task of the task
changes accordingly in the Gantt chart, and the task
is resized.
|
| Actual
Quantity |
The
quantity related to the task in the bill of
materials.
This
value is set when you update the project schedule.
See Update the project schedule.
|
| Actual
Weight |
The
weight related to the task in the bill of materials.
This
value is set when you update the project schedule.
See Update the project schedule.
|
| Percent
Completed |
The
percentage of the task that is completed.
To
change the percentage, click the %
Comp cell and type a percentage in the cell.
When
you change the percentage, the percentage completed
of the main tasks is automatically updated based on
the summary status method task setting. For more
information, see Add schedule tasks.
|
| Original
Estimate |
The
number of original estimate hours applied to the
task.
If the
task is divided by sequences, lots, or other
breakdown fields, the hours are distributed to the
resulting tasks on the Gantt Chart, weighed by
duration.
To
adjust the original estimate hours, click the
Orig.
EST cell and type the number of hours in the
field.
When
you adjust the original estimate hours, the adjusted
number of hours appears in italics in the Gantt
Chart. The remaining hours are redistributed among
the tasks that have not been manually adjusted.
You
can return to the automatic distribution of hours by
clearing the value in the Orig.
EST cell.
|
| Unreleased Hours |
The
number of original estimate hours that have not yet
been released, calculated by the Percent
Released value.
For
example, if the original estimate is 500 hours and
the task is 20% released, the number of unreleased
hours is 400.
|
| Planned
Hours (Base
Hours) |
The
planned hours that have been released.
Tasks
that have the Status
Link option selected will have this field updated
automatically when the
project schedule status is updated.
For
more information, see Update the project schedule and
Add schedule tasks.
|
| Adjustment Hours |
Allows
you to manually adjust the planned hours.
To
adjust the number of planned hours, click the
Adjustment cell, and type a value.
|
| Percent
Released |
The
percentage of the original estimate hours that have
been released and that appear in the Base
Hours field. This field updates automatically when the
planned hours are updated.
For
example, if the original estimate is 500 hours and
the planned hours is updated to 100 hours, the
percentage released is 20%. This in turn updates the
unreleased hours to 400.
Once
all material associated with a task has been
released, the percent released may need to be
manually adjusted, so that no further unreleased
hours are included in the total planned hours.
Let's say that a task is broken out into 4 sequences
and the original estimate is 2,000 hours. If all 4
sequence tasks have the same duration, each one will
receive 500 of the original estimate hours. The
drawings are submitted for sequence 1, and after the
next status update, the planned hours are set to 100
hours, which will update the percent released to
20%. Since Tekla
PowerFab does not know
if all of sequence 1 has been received, the
remaining unreleased hours are still included in the
total planned hours calculation. If everything has
in fact been received for sequence 1, you can
manually set the percent to 100%, so that no further
unreleased hours are included in the total planned
hours.
To
adjust the percentage, click in the %
Released cell, and type a percentage in the cell. When you
manually adjust the released hours, the number
appears in italics. When you have manually adjusted
the percentage released, the value is not
automatically adjusted according to any changes made
to the planned hours. To return to the automatic
calculated value, clear the value in the cell.
|
| Total
Planned Hours (Plan
Hours) |
The
total number of the unreleased hours, planned hours,
and adjustment hours for the task.
|
| Linked
Hours |
The
number of hours updated according to the Status
Link option. For example, the Production Progress, Production Completed, and Station
Progress options update the linked Linked
Hours with the hours entered in Piece
Tracking. For more information, see Add schedule tasks.
To
adjust the number of linked hours, click the
Linked
Hours cell, and type the number of hours.
|
| Regular
Hours |
The
regular hours associated with the task, entered in
time tracking. For more information, see Manage time-tracking information.
|
|
Overtime
Hours
|
The
overtime and double overtime hours associated with
the task, entered in time tracking. For more
information, see Manage time-tracking information.
|
| Total
Hours |
The
total hours worked on the task, coming from either
the linked hours or the regular and overtime hours
from time tracking.
To
ensure that the time is not duplicated, the time
tracking hours override the linked hours. If the
number of either regular or overtime hours is
greater than zero, the total hours is set to the
regular hours plus the overtime hours. If the number
of both regular and overtime hours is zero, the
total hours is set to the linked hours.
|
| Utilization Percent |
The
utilization percentage is calculated as the
percentage of the total hours compared to the total
planned hours.
For
example, if the number of total planned hours is 500
and the number of total hours is 200, the
utilization percentage is 40%.
If the
utilization percentage is over 5% greater than the
percentage of the task completed, the utilization
percentage is highlighted in red. In this example,
if the percent completed is 35% or less, the
utilization percentage of 40% is highlighted in
red.
|
| Assigned
to User |
The
user who is responsible for the task. For more
information, see Add schedule tasks.
To
change the assigned user, select a user in the
list.
|
| Resource |
The
resource that the task has been assigned to for
production scheduling purposes. For more
information, see Add schedule tasks and
View the production schedule.
To
change the resource, select a resource in the
list.
|
| Predecessors |
The linked tasks that are immediate predecessors of
the task. |
| Successors |
The linked tasks that are immediate successors of the
task. |

When selected, Tekla
PowerFab shows task

When selected, Tekla
PowerFab shows the

Baseline Bars |
When
selected, Tekla
PowerFab shows the
baseline dates as a yellow bar on the Gantt chart as
set when the baseline was set.
The
baseline overlay bars will not be shown if:
- The baseline has not been set.
- The task has the same start and end dates as the
baseline dates.
- The task has been added after the baseline was
set.
