I'm part of a PMO that is extremely new. The company I work for is unfamilar with proper PM processes. When I try to create the schedule, a resource will tell me it will take them 2 weeks to complete a task. In MS Project, 2 weeks would be calulated as 80 hours. I know the resource will not actually take 80 hours, it may take them say 6. What they mean is they will complete the task sometime within that 2 week span. So, if I enter duration as 6 hours, the schedule will be off, but the budget will be correct. If I put it in as 2 weeks, the schedule will be correct but the budget will be inflated. Any tips on how to enter the info into MS Project as accurate as possible?
