Resource Task Lists

Posted: 12 Oct 2005 08:47 AM PDT

Thank you for your help so far.

I'm trying the low tech approach, and it can work. However, I'm running
into the following hurdle. I want the data to look like the following in
Excel.

Row Task Name Other task data Pane Freeze 10/01/05
10/02/05 ->
1 Task 1 Work |
6 h
_2_________________________________Act.__| 4 h
2 h
3 Task 2 Work |
2 h
_4_________________________________Act.__| 2h

So basically, I have two panes with the general task data on the left
(planned start/end, variance, work, duration, yada, yada) and the date
specific stuff on the right. The left pane gives two rows (merged) to each
task, and the right pane uses those two rows to differentiate between
scheduled and actual work.

I can't preformat the Excel file and copy into this format, because it
complains about a difference in formatting. If I do the formatting after
copying from Project, I'll spend all day every day doing formatting.

Any ideas here? Or will this also require some VBA work (which is outside
of my skillset as well)?

Maybe there is a better place where I can post this question?

Again, thank you.

Stoplight Formula

Posted: 12 Oct 2005 08:21 AM PDT

There may be a way to make the formula more compact so you can fit in your
new conditions.
If you post it we can take a look and see what can be done.
Macros are great, but they don't autocalculate.

Have you checked the no of days per month ie Tool/Options/Calendar tab? This
is used to calculate how long a month is in days.

Addting a time column to project ...

Posted: 12 Oct 2005 07:14 AM PDT

HI. :)

Trying this out. The drag is I can't change it to 6:00am, it only starts
with 8:00am

Too bad we can't put time in a different column...

Hi Robert,

Just to make sure there is no misunderstanding here.
Assigning them to a summary task or to PM task s John suggests will by no
means change their assignment to the other taks, it will only show them as
overallocated if they still are assigned 100% there.

No function in Project will change assignment units on a task by working on
an other task.

Resource Leveling and Keeping Tasks Together

Posted: 11 Oct 2005 03:15 PM PDT

I want this option because I don't want the first task to start 6 months
ahead of the second task. For example, if I have Task 1 is Create Functional
Specification and Task 2 is Create Technical Specification I would not want
the functional specification to be completed and then 6 months later (due to
resource constraints) start the technical specification.

It can't be done that way.
I don't think project is set up to work that way.

How do I add Task Summary Name to rsrc rpt like WhoDoesWhatWhn?

Posted: 11 Oct 2005 09:55 AM PDT

Thanks for the feedback, but unfortunately I want a Resource based report not
a task one.

I know that you can have a task report like this, with the outline
displayed, but in the Crosstab Report dialogue box in the Definition tab, if
you select Resource in the Row drop-down the "Show Summary Tasks" checkbox is
greyed out.

Any other thoughts out there?

How do I add Questions/Parking Lot items to my MSProject?

VC - have you considered the Hyperlink option - you could have a Milestone
Task linked to a doent listing your "Parking Lot" items or any other
doent including Visio files.
