Large Durations - Activities That Have a Remaining Duration Greater Than 352 Hours Section of the Schedule Check Report Dialog Box

Overview

Use this section to view activities with duration greater than the value you listed in the Large Durations field in the Check Schedule dialog box. Activities with a large duration are difficult to manage. You can break these activities down into smaller activities which provide a better insight into cost and schedule.

Only a subset of the activities in the open projects are checked. WBS summary activities, activities with an actual finish date, milestones, and Level of Effort activities are removed from the subset to create the list of activities checked for large remaining duration. The Actual percentage is calculated as the number of activities found that match the check divided by the number of subset activities checked.
