Updating Task Progress involves noting the percentage complete for tasks worked on over the past week by adding "% complete:" to updated task notes. These updated notes are then copied to the clipboard and pasted back into Planner under the project schedule tab. This updates the project schedule to reflect progress with completed tasks marked as green and slightly behind tasks marked as yellow.

1. Updating Task Progress

2. Let’s say it’s been a week, and you’ve made
progress on your book.

3. To update progress, you add a “% complete:” to
the tasks that you have worked on.

4. Next, you copy your updated notes to the
clipboard.

5. Back in Planner, you paste your updated notes
and click the project schedule tab.

6. Your project schedule is now updated for progress, and you
see that your completed task is green, and your “slightly
behind” task is yellow.

7. Next: Sharing project updates with others.
