I figured I must be missing something. I tried what you describe: 1. created the "saturday work" calendar 2. Added resource Worker1 and modified his calendar to make 7/14 a working day. I could not give the exception the name "cutover". There is no option to do that in MSP2007 as far as I could...

Hi joiseystud, I simulated what you described (in project 2007). I created three tasks: one before july 14, one on july 14 and one after, linked them and assigned a common resource to all three. Per the standard calendar, the weekend gets skipped, so the july 14 task moves to july 16. I opened...

It seems to me like an indirect and high level way of determining resource availability. I would only use such a method to get a global overview of availability during pre-planning. Using a resource driven schedule is an easier way imo. Having said that, it is an interesting question from an...

I noticed that changing the project start date using Project > Project Information does not move tasks that have date constraints (in MSP2003 anyway). "Adjust Dates" does the trick nicely, moving all constraints to the new date (thanks PDQ, I had forgotten about that one). JL

Hi ecs, When Project marks the %complete on a task, it is always based on the current duration of the task. As you pointed out, this does not cause dependent tasks to start earlier if you have finished your first task early. Project just fills the completion to the end. There is no automatic...

I use leveling quite often and combine this with priorities. After playing around with the file you set up, I conclude that the delay field allows you (as the planner) to specify a late start of a resource assigned to a particular task. Leveling will not change that value and will basically...

Hi nuthinlikerubbin, I use Project 2003, so the menus may be different. The principle should be the same though. Good luck.

Hi nuthinlikerubbin, You need to do the following to accomplish this: 1. Modify Project Calendar Go to Tools>Change Working Time... In the dialog box, select the columns for the days (by selecting the headers M through F). Change the working times From: and To: to reflect the 6 hour work day...
