| Posted: 29 Apr 2004 01:31 PM PDT Hi, That unfortunately is not a feature. Logical, since many tasks can have two or more successors, other tasks may have no sucessors at all, so there is not necessarily just one "the next in the order" If you have a field that will determine the order you want to see, go to Project, Sort, Sort by... You probably will have to cross out "keep outline structure" and if so, you shall also have to go to Tools, Options, View, and cross out "show summary tasks".

| How to manage tasks payment terms ? Posted: 29 Apr 2004 09:46 AM PDT You both have and haven't missed something. Project costs and your accounts payable and receivable issues are two entirely different things. Project tracks the former in order to help you estimate the project budget. It tracks the accrual point to facilitate validation of the budget, estimating cash flow requirements, and tracking progress against schedule and budget through earned value analysis. The basic question it seeks to answer is "how much will this cost our firm and does the ROI justify the expense?" But it does not pretend to manage, nor in my opinion should one attempt to use it, to track payables and receivables. Thats the job of an accounting system, not a project management system. The budget is when the obligation to pay is accrued, if you will, not when you actually write the check. I may do a task today that I won't pay for until next week. Or I may have to pay for a component in advance even though it won't be delivered until next month. But the budget is hit with the cost today as I do the work or the component is used - the money is effectively spent during the performance of the work even though I may still have the funds in the bank for another period of time or have released them before the work begins. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer/Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "Jef" <fr> wrote in message news:google.com... |

| Posted: 28 Apr 2004 04:51 PM PDT Ruthie -- The process of estimating both Duration values and Work values is a bit tricky. In fact, I refer to these values as "guesstimates" since I do both "guessing" and "esimating" to come up with a number. The Project Management Institute (PMI) recommends a "best practice" that wherever possible, estimates should come from the team members who will actually perform the work. I think you can see why this would be a "best practice" in the estimation process: 1. You will draw upon the work experience of people who have performed the task previously, which could make their estimate more reliable 2. You get "buy-in" from the person 3. Resources are more likely to report accurate progress on tasks in which they provided the estimate Therefore, in your scenario, I really can't tell you whether your Duration estimates are accurate. Instead, I would recommend that you speak with your team members and ask them for their estimates. If you cannot do this, then I would recommend you speak with people who have worked on tasks like those in the past. Hope this helps. -- Dale A.

| Posted: 28 Apr 2004 04:46 PM PDT I'll be happy to plan your project for you for an appropriate professional day rate plus airfare to your location, hotel, ground transportation, per diem and other reasonable expenses. Typically costs and timeframe to produce a viable plan usually run to about 25% of the total project timeline and budget. Please advise your requirements. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer/Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "ese" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com... me and assign durations and resourses? diagram? |
| Posted: 28 Apr 2004 04:36 PM PDT K. Bolton -- A resource overallocation occurs when a resource is schedule for more work than they are available to perform in any time period, including as little as a 15-minute time period. To determine where your resource overallocations are occurring in your project plan, apply the Resource Usage view, examine the overallocated resources and the time periods in which the overallocations are occurring. You can also zoom in to smaller time periods to see overallocations that occur in less than a full working day time period. Hope this helps. -- Dale A.

| Posted: 28 Apr 2004 04:18 PM PDT Hi Nicole, Sorry but PMS Project is all about Projects. Projects by definition have a start and an end, and all tasks are planned to have a start and an end date. Training never stops, but for instance "The 2004 program for Management Development" does, it has tasks that are linked together, dates top respect, resources to plan... Activities with no start and no end cannot be planned in Project. If you really need to show some, make them for instance "Training through 2005" which has start and en dates.
