Sorry, I forgot to mention that in addition to being interested, I may also
have the experience you seek -- most recently a Project Server 2003 Proof of
Concept for a $1.4B S&P 500 client doing distributed software development,
with offices in six continents.

Hi Rod Gill.

Point taken and thanks for the advice. I most certaily will do that.
Strangely enough it never occured to me that maybe it already was fixed in
newer versions.

Thanks again and happy Easter.

In Project how do I get a task to start on the weekend.

Posted: 25 Mar 2005 04:17 PM PST

Adding to the other comments, the best way to use MS Project is NOT to try
to input task schedules yourself, whether you're trying to tell it to start
the task on the weekend or some other time. Project's job is not to parrot
back at you the dates you have determined you want tasks to occur. You
don't tell Project when you plan to do the tasks, it's job is to tell YOU
when you should be planning to do them.

A far better way than what I think you're doing is to tell Project
generically when tasks can take place (the calendar found in Tools,
ChangeWorkingTime and setting it to be the Project Calendar), what tasks
need to take place, the expended length of time each will take to complete,
and the relationships expressed through the links. The Start and Finish
fields are *calculated* fields and Project's calculation of them tell you
when they can be scheduled.

Hi Jan,

Sorry, I don't know if MS is planning on fixing the problem they acknowledge
in the KB article. Perhaps in a future SP but as stated in the KB article
the problem is related to an attempt to make MS Project 2002 compatible with
older operating systems.

Assigning a resource to a task that has a predecessor changes fini

Posted: 24 Mar 2005 11:21 PM PST

hi Bandu Patil,

Schedule is calculated by counting the amount of active working time between
the scheduled start and end of the task for the assigned resources. It is
when you assign resources that the Duration gets calculated. For example,
Chris is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal" task on Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday. Jamie is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal" task
on Wednesday and Thursday. Sean is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal"
task on the following Monday and Tuesday. The working span of the "Write
proposal" task, and therefore its duration, is five days (Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday).

The important thing to note is that Schedule is worked out when Resources
are assigned. That is, the active working time of resources contributes to
the schedule.

Regards,

Haris

Completed task still show in the resource view as work?

Posted: 24 Mar 2005 08:09 AM PST

Hi,

I'm glad you solved your problem but I must admit you mention a few things
that I don't get.
I don't have a "Resource View" in Project.
If you mean Resource Usage, it does show finished tasks as well ... unless
you use a filter, and what it shows then depends on the filter.
For instance if you use the "Work Incomplete" filter a finished task will
not show, even when the finishing date lies in the future.
Are you working with a filter of your own making?
