Progress is the percent of a task that is done. Each time a site engineer adds progress to a task, Superwise stores one entry with the date, the percent and a description. The **Progress Log** lists all these entries for the project.

You can also use this screen to add the progress of many tasks together at the end of the day. This is the **Bulk Add** table.

## Before you start

- The project needs a schedule with tasks. See [Create a schedule](create-schedule.md).
- Choose the project at the top of the page.

## How to find a progress entry

1. Open **Schedule > Progress Log**.
2. To search, type at least 3 characters in the box marked 3.
3. Each column heading has a filter row. Type in a box, or choose a date range, to filter by **Created On**, **Area**, **Task**, **Progress On**, **Progress %** or **Created By**.
4. Click the arrow in front of a row to see the full description and the photos of the entry.
5. To save the list, click **Export to CSV** (mark 2).

A map pin at the end of the row opens the place where the entry was made. A red pin says the location is not valid.

## How to correct or delete an entry

1. Click the three dots at the end of the row.
2. Choose one of the actions.

![The row menu of the Progress Log offers Add Remark, Edit and Delete.](../media/progress-log-row-menu.png)

| Action | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Add Remark** | Adds a note to the entry. The note is compulsory in the window **Add Remark**. |
| **Edit** | Opens **Update Progress**. You can change **As On Date**, **Approx. Progress**, **Description** and the photos. The slider can only move between the lowest and highest values that fit the other entries of the task. |
| **Delete** | Asks you to confirm in **Confirm Action**. Then it removes the entry. |

**Edit** is not offered for entries that came from a step of a task.

## How to add progress for many tasks

1. Open **Schedule > Progress Log** and click **Bulk Add** (mark 1). You can also click **More actions** on the Tasks screen and choose **Bulk Update Activities**.
2. Click the pencil button next to **Areas**. The window **Select Areas** shows the areas as a tree. Open a branch with the arrow, tick the areas you need, and click **OK**. **Expand All** and **Collapse All** open or close the whole tree. The box then shows how many areas are chosen.
3. You can also choose one or more **Packages**.
4. Click **Load Details**. The button works only when you chose an area or a package.
5. The table lists the tasks that can take progress. Fill the columns for each task that has progress today.
6. Click **SAVE**. Superwise says **Task Progress Updated successfully!**

![The Daily Progress table. Mark 1 is Areas, mark 2 is Packages, mark 3 loads the tasks and mark 4 saves.](../media/progress-bulk-add.png)

![The window to choose areas shows the areas of the project as a tree.](../media/progress-bulk-add-areas.png)

Rows where **Progress** is empty or 0 are left out. Only the rows with progress are saved.

## What the columns mean

| Name | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| **Area** | The area of the task. |
| **Activity** | The task. |
| **Previous Progress** | The percent saved so far. You cannot change it. |
| **Progress** | The new percent done. It must be more than **Previous Progress** and at most 100. |
| **Actual Start** | The date the work started. Required. |
| **Actual Finish** | The date the work ended. Required when **Progress** is 100. |
| **Progress Date** | The date of this progress. Superwise fills today. It must be between **Actual Start** and **Actual Finish**. |
| **Description** | A note about the work. |

## Rules to know

- Each task can appear only once in the table. Superwise reports "Duplicate Area(s) and Activity(s) found".
- If one row has a problem, Superwise saves nothing. It lists the row numbers of the problems above the table.
- The Edit window and the Progress Update window on the Tasks screen allow up to 3 photos.

## If something goes wrong

| What you see | What to do |
| --- | --- |
| Actual Start on Row No ... are required | Fill **Actual Start** in the rows named. |
| Actual Finish on Row No ... are required for 100% Progress | Fill **Actual Finish** for each task that has 100 in **Progress**. |
| Progress must be between Previous Progress and 100% | Give a **Progress** above **Previous Progress**. |
| Progress Date must be between Actual Start and Actual Finish | Change **Progress Date**, or one of the other two dates. |
| Task Progress has no record to update | Fill **Progress** in at least one row. |
| Project does not have any Task to add Progress currently | No task can take progress now. Check the schedule and the status of tasks. See [Tasks](task-list.md). |
