Fetch and Verify Lookahead Activities

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:

    • 'Standard' level permissions or higher for the Scheduling tool.

Steps

  1. In the Lookahead tab, select specific 'leaf node' activities from the master schedule to bring them into your field plan.

    • You can only fetch an activity once.

    • You can only fetch activities that have 0% progress.

  2. Compare your colorful field bars against the light gray shadow bars (which represent the master schedule dates) to identify variance.

  3. Look for the Verify Flag. This is triggered if your data is inconsistent—for example, if a task is 100% complete but the finish date is in the future.

  4. Note the capital 'A' next to dates in the grid; this indicates the activity has been 'Actualized' (progressed above 0%).
