If you would like to enter the percentage of task completion manually, you can use default custom field of VIP Task Manager Professional – Complete. to enter percentage of task accomplishment manually please follow the steps provided by the link below: How to set/change task completion

2.      Automatic calculation: VIP Task Manager Professional can automatically calculate the percentage of task completion based on [Actual Duration] by the following formula: Percent Complete = (Actual Duration / Duration) * 100 for example, the task "Write Summary Report" is assigned to Sandra. the task has estimated duration of 96 hours. Sandra has been working for 48 hours. So Actual Duration is 48 hours. by viewing custom field Percent (%) Complete you see that this task is 50 % complete.
