Documentation

Definition

Specifies the tentative duration of a network activity.

The tentative duration is calculated from the actual duration, the remaining duration and the forecast duration. This is the most exact means of determining the expected activity duration.

The system differentiates between the following:

• Activity is finally confirmed:

  -> Tentative duration = Actual duration

• Specification of forecast duration of activity from confirmation

  -> Tentative duration = Forecast duration (comprised of actual and remaining duration)

• Specification of forecast activity finish date from the confirmation

  -> Tentative duration = Forecast finish date minus actual start date.

• Specification of neither forecast duration nor forecast activity finish date from the confirmation.

  -> Tentative duration = Forecasted normal duration of activity

• No specification of forecasted normal duration of activity

  -> Tentative = Normal duration of activity
