Actual Dates

[MarisolCa]

Hello, Are "actual date completed" editable? We had projects that were finished but not marked completed until recently. This is showing the "actual date completed" as late. Is there a way to change this? Thank you! Marisol Campos MarisolCampos Creative

Hi Marisol - yes the actual completion date of a project should be editable per this documentation article... check it out! https://experience.workfront.com/s/article/Understanding-the-Actual-Completion-Date-of-a-Project-432... Kyna Baker Customer Content and Community Manager Workfront

Hi Kyra, I recently ran into the same issue as Marisol. I checked out the article, however, when you go to Project Details> Overview>Edit, there is no field for actual completion date. It is similarly non-existent under Edit Project. If it is supposed to be visible and editable, it would be great to have the bug fixed. Susie Lage Western Digital Corporation

The key in the help article is that: "The latest Actual Completion Date from a project's tasks will be used as the Actual Completion Date for the entire project." If you need to adjust a Project's Actual Completion Date, you'll need to adjust the last Task's Actual Completion Date. If you go into Task Details --> Edit Overview, you can adjust the last Task's Actual Completion Date, which in turn will adjust the Project's Actual Completion Date.
