Schedule Performance Portlet

The Schedule Performance portlet displays the number of late tasks categorized as critical late, past due, or scheduled late within the days outlook as follows:

• Critical Late. Represents tasks are late and on the critical path for the project.
• Past Due. Represents noncritical tasks are that are past their finish date.
• Scheduled Late. Represents noncritical tasks are due as of the current date or in the future depending on when the tasks were scheduled.

Summary tasks and milestones are not included in this portlet. Also, tasks with a status of "Completed" are not included in this portlet.

Tasks are considered late if they have a days late value, which is calculated as follows:

• If a baseline exists, then days late is calculated as task finish date minus baseline finish date.
• If a baseline exists and the task finish date is the same as the baseline finish date, then the task is considered late if it is not completed and it was due before today’s date.
• If there is no baseline, then days late is calculated if the task is not completed and it was due before today’s date. In this case, days late is calculated as today’s date minus task finish date.

No columns on the graph imply that all the tasks within the days outlook are completing as scheduled.
