==== Planned, Feasible and Actual  ====
 
*Planned dates and data hold the original dates and data (start end, duration, cost etc.) put in the planner.
*Actual dates and data hold the final actual dates and data as recorded by the team on task/action/gate start/completion.
*Feasible dates and data are automatically and continuously updated based on how the project progresses.
**''Feasible Start Date'' is the earliest possible date the gate or action can start (based on prior dependencies). If there is no precedence or dependencies this is equal to the planned start date.
**''Feasible End Date'' is the expected completion date.
**''Feasible Duration'' is the length (in days) of the available time window to complete the action/gate.
 
In the ideal scenario, where each item is completed on-time and exactly as planned, all three are the same. In the real world however this is rarely the case.
 
As an example consider the following scenario:
 
*Assume a project has two gates, A and B, and gate B has A as a precedence.
*Each gate has one action item below it namely Action 1 and 2 respectively.
*Assume 7 day work weeks and no holidays.
 
<br> Then, the hierarchy would be as follows:
 
*Project
 
::*Gate A
::::Action 1
::*Gate B
::::Action 2
 
===== Initial Planning  =====
 
If we define Action 1 to start on May 1 and run for 10 days, and Action 2 to start after Action 1 is completed and also run for 10 days then our plan would be as follows:

===== After the Start of Action 1  =====
 
Now assume that Action 1 was started on May 3 instead of May 1 as planned. Then the plan would automatically be shifted as follows:

<br> <br> <br> Specifically the late start of Action 1 would push the feasible end date of Action 1 forward and automatically cause other related dates to shift (in orange).&nbsp;
 
===== After the Completion of Action 1  =====
 
Now assume that Action 1 was completed on May 12 (a day earlier than feasible. Then the plan would automatically be shifted as follows:
