    Hi @Finops C'ship. I'm confused by the scenario. Can you share a screenshot of the row in question.

    My confusion is in the value of 60%. If the status of the task is "Complete", shouldn't the % Complete be 100%? Also, based on the formula you referenced, the % complete has no impact.

    So, my assumption based on what you've shared is that for some reason this completed task is still showing a task status of "In Progress".

    For this reason, I think a screen capture will provide clarity and guide a resolution to your inquiry.

    Thanks.
