Text Value

A text value is required. This text specifies the value the Remaining Work field is updated to.

You must represent work duration data in Project work time units (PWU). 1 PWU=1/1000 of a minute. 480,000 PWU=8 hours.

Remarks

Note
If the value specified in the TotalWork element does not equal the sum of the values specified in the ActualWork and RemainingWork elements, a StatusingInvalidUpdateData error occurs. This applies only to simple work data updates defined by using the parent Change element.

Example

The following example uses the RemainingWork element to specify that the Remaining Work field is updated to the value of 16 hours for the specified assignment.
