Please note the following restrictions on the % complete mapping.

  • If the Actual Work field is mapped to Time Spent, only 100% can be entered in the Status / % complete table and the "Set % complete to 0% for other statuses" option must be off. If %complete = 100%, Actual Work will not be updated by Ceptah Bridge.

  • If the Daily Actual Work field is mapped to Time Spent, the "% complete" mode cannot be selected at all.
