In 2003 the analysis tool bar has a Visio WBS wisard, but
you will have to re-arrange and re-establish the
precedence links (convert from WBS org chart to a Flow
Chart) in Visio.

Linking tasks with no particular order

Posted: 29 Jun 2004 01:40 PM PDT

JeremyE --

A technique I like to use in this situation is to do the following:

1. Do not set dependencies on any of the 10 tasks since there are no hard
logic dependencies between the tasks
2. Set the Duration of each task to 10 days since each task must be
performed within a 10-day "window of opportunity"
3. Assign the resource at only 10% Units on each of the 10 tasks

The advantages of using the above scenario are:

(A) You do not have to level the project because you have not overallocated
the resource on these 10 tasks
(B) The resource can work the tasks in any order
(C) When actuals are entered for these 10 tasks, you will see exactly how
the work was performed and in what time period for each task

Just my opinion. Hope this helps.

coded". I don't care what order the pages are coded in, so when I link them
all together it seems as if one has to be coded right after the other, in
order, and so on... Is there a way to tell Project that all of these tasks
just have to be done within 10 days or something like that, and the order
they are completed doesn't matter? Or should I just schedule them one after
the other and when I actually complete them I will update the ACTUAL dates?
Thanks!!

Lucinda,

The network diagram view is activity on node. Not activity on arrow.
So sorry to say you can't do this.

WBS Cannot Renumber

Posted: 29 Jun 2004 01:08 PM PDT

After moving, deleting, or rearranging tasks, their
custom work breakdown structure (WBS) codes may no longer
be in the correct sequence. You can renumber the WBS
codes of all or selected tasks. On the View menu, click a
sheet of task or resource information.

In the Task Name field, select the tasks you want to
renumber.

To renumber WBS codes for all tasks, you don't need to
select any tasks.

On the Project menu, point to WBS, and then click
Renumber. To correct the WBS code sequence for selected
adjacent tasks, click Selected tasks.
To correct the WBS code sequence for all tasks in the
project, click Entire project.

Hope this helps!
 

wholesale copy of users and enterprise resource pool

If you wish to pick and choose the resources, then you might try the
following technique:

1. Back up the Enterprise Global on Project Server instance #1 (PS#1)
2. Restore the Enterprise Global on Project Server instance #2 (PS#2)

Doing so will transfer your custom fields and outline codes to PS#2.

3. Launch Microsoft Project and connect to PS#1
4. Open a new blank project (this project will store the desired resources)
4. Click Tools - Build Team from Enterprise
5. Add the desired resources to the team and click OK
6. Save the project as an .mpp file in a network folder and close the
project
7. Close Microsoft Project on PS#1
8. Launch Microsoft Project and connect to PS#2
9. Click Tools - Import Resources to Enterprise
10. Select the .mpp project containing the desired resources
11. Carefully complete each of the Import Wizard pages to import the
resources

Just a thought. Hope this helps.
