% Complete not totalling correctly

Don Sievert

I have a roll up task with several children (All are indented under the parent).  All but one of the children are at 0% and one is at 100%.  The Parent is showing 100% yet I have several tasks that either have not started or are at 0%.  Not sure what I am doing wrong and did not see anything like this in the forum.

 

Thanks
Don

One thing I forgot to add--many of the children are 0 Duration to reflect a key milestone or deliverable completion.  The one item that is 100% has a duration---Does % complete only work on duration based children?

Parent row percent complete rollup represents a weighted average of child rows based on duration and percent complete of the child rows. If the task has a 0 day duration (milestone) then it will not be included in the rollup.
