Hi, ​@AbisheikMe. I recommend watching the video on Master duration types and task constraints.

 

In general, planned durations are often entered manually, although some task constraints will calculate the planned duration for you (for example, Fixed Dates). If you’re looking at a parent task, however, the planned duration is a calculation based on the planned durations of the child tasks within the parent.

 

Actual durations are determined based on when users start and complete tasks.
