2. Based on task completion percentage and issue count - The project completion percentage is calculated based on each task completion percentage. If there is no percentage completion in the issue module, status type (Open,Close) will be considered. In this type all tasks and issues will have equal weightage (Weightage = 1).
   

3. Based on weightage field - Users can customize the weightage for each task and issue. The project completion percentage is calculated based on the weightage value given in weightage field (numeric field or task duration or work hours).

Milestone Percentage Completion = (∑(Task Completion% * Task Weightage) + ∑(100% * Closed Issue Weightage)) /  ( ∑ Task Weightage  + ∑ Issues Weightage)
