Using weighted milestones in the work breakdown structure

The module provides various ways to calculate performance percent complete. One method is to assign weighted milestones at the WBS level. For each WBS element, select the WBS Milestones Percent Complete option on the Earned Value tab, then define as many milestones as you need and assign a level of significance or weight to each of them. As progress occurs and you mark each milestone complete, P6 Professional calculates the WBS element's performance percent complete based on the weight of the milestone, independent of its lower-level activities.
