FROM OVERVIEW TO FOLLOW-UP
A high completion percentage can still need attention.
Status shows the workflow stage. Completion shows how much work is done. State is a person’s overall assessment, shown with one of three smileys. Read these alongside planned and actual dates.
Example: three projects in your portfolio
Customer delivery
Product development
Website update
Most work is complete, but the project manager’s assessment flags a concern. Open the project, review the remaining installation work, and discuss whether a supplier delay could affect the planned finish.
Use project summaries and portfolio dashboards for further progress information.
