Update Activity Progress

Background

Updating progress is essential for keeping the project team informed of site productivity. In Procore, the Status of a task is a dynamic calculation. The system compares the Percent Complete you enter against the current date and the scheduled finish date to determine if a task is "In Progress," "Late," or "Completed".

Things to Consider

Required User Permissions: 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the project's Scheduling tool.
Master vs. Look-Ahead: In Option 1 (Read-Only), you should perform progress updates within the Look Ahead tab to provide the most granular field data.

Steps

Method 1: Update via the Gantt Chart (Graphical)

Navigate to the project's Scheduling tool.

Type the numerical percentage (e.g., "50") and press ENTER.
