Applying the Progress Spotlight to the Resources Assignments View
To quickly locate the activities you need to update, you can use the Progress Spotlight feature, which highlights all activities that should have progressed during a specific time period. This time period is defined by the smallest increment of the current timescale starting with the current date. For example, if the current timescale is set to Month/Week, Progress Spotlight highlights all activities that should have progressed during the week starting with today's date.
To show or hide the Progress Spotlight:
- Click
Resources. - On the Resources navigation bar, click
Assignments. - On the Assignments page:
- Click
Gantt Chart, if the Gantt chart is not selected. - Click View
and select Progress Spotlight.
Tips
- In the Gantt chart, Progress Spotlight displays a yellow background, or curtain, to indicate the time period during which progress should have occurred. You can drag the end point of the highlighted area to extend or compress the time period.
- In the table, all activities that should have progressed are highlighted. You can use Ctrl+ the Up or Down arrow key to navigate to each highlighted activity in sequence, recording progress in the appropriate data columns.
