In NIZU, the project progress bar provides a visual representation of how far a project has advanced — not just by the number of tasks completed, but by the value and complexity of those tasks. This ensures a more accurate picture of progress, especially when tasks carry different weights.
Each task in a project is assigned a point value, reflecting its complexity or importance.
The default point range is 1 to 5.
You can customize this range in:
Settings > Setup > Task Settings > Task Point Range.
The progress percentage is then calculated using the total points from completed tasks divided by the total task points in the project:
Project Progress (%) = (Completed Task Points ÷ Total Task Points) × 100
Here’s how a project’s progress would be calculated:
|
Task |
Points |
Status |
|---|---|---|
|
Task 1 |
1 |
✅ Completed |
|
Task 2 |
1 |
❌ Not Completed |
|
Task 3 |
4 |
✅ Completed |
|
Task 4 |
3 |
❌ Not Completed |
|
Task 5 |
1 |
❌ Not Completed |
Total Points: 1 + 1 + 4 + 3 + 1 = 10
Completed Points: Task 1 (1) + Task 3 (4) = 5
Progress = (5 ÷ 10) × 100 = 50%
The project progress bar will display 50% completion.
By calculating progress based on task weight, teams get a more meaningful insight into real project advancement — ensuring efforts are focused where they matter most.
