SAP Project System ,There are four sets of dates on all levels of a project (i.e. on WBS elements, networks and activities): The Basic dates are planned manually but will act as constraints for network scheduling. Scheduled dates are determined by automated network scheduling and in network activities these are called earliest and latest dates. Whereas Forecast dates are another set of dates, which are used as ongoing comparisons throughout the project. The actual dates are set in the project execution phase, e.g. by entering actual dates for WBS elements in the project planning board or by confirmation of network activities.
