Fetch and Verify Lookahead Activities
Steps
Fetch Activities: In the Lookahead tab, select specific "leaf node" activities from the master schedule to bring them into your field plan.
Single Fetch Rule: You may only fetch an activity once.
Non-Actualized Rule: Currently, you can only fetch activities that have 0% progress.
Analyze Shadow Bars: Compare your colorful field bars against the Light Gray Shadow Bars (which represent the master schedule dates) to identify variance.
Verify Progress: 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.
Identify Actuals: Note the capital "A" next to dates in the grid; this indicates the activity has been "Actualized" (progressed above 0%).
