| Help! Baseline costs losing values. Posted: 16 Jun 2004 12:16 PM PDT Thanks for the reply. I apologize for the term Master Schedule. Our Master Schedule is the only schedule. What I meant to say was it is our master format for all projects. Our schedule has no other schedules inserted into it. All of our projects use a baseline type schedule. On a weekly basis, we update actuals to compare to baseline. Our problem is that when we enter dollar amounts either via dynamic linking to excel or by manual input and say save baseline, the costs ($) show a zero value in the schedule. Should we just save schedule as baseline with no values, enter values then save file (do not save as baseline)? We want to have those initial values for comparison to actuals. How do we go about it? Thanks, Rod inserted into it, the They all being in the all projects you need group. project.server and Project VBA message baseline, |
| Posted: 16 Jun 2004 08:46 AM PDT Thank you Rod I will try to write the micro to copy the value from one column file to the other. I have to clarify one thing before doing this. I assume these two files does not have to open together becasue both files are in the network directory but it is password protected by two different proeject managers therefore during editing one file may be open and at the same time the other file might be closed? Please advise However, if you do so, will corrupt the have a macro to copy group. project.server and Project VBA message |
| Resources Showing Overallocated for work already complete! Posted: 16 Jun 2004 07:13 AM PDT Hi Brian Give in the work before June as Actual Work, not as Work (that was my point, maybe you didn't notice) even if necessary 150 hours on May 31, and Sue will not appear as overallocated on resource lists (only for that day of course).

Let me explain further, and maybe you can give me some more insight. week to complete her tasks and remain on schedule. We start the project on June 1st. Sue completes 150 hours of work within the 1st 2 weeks, and so it appears as though she was overallocated by 70 hours (150 hours minus (-) 80 hours of allocated work). Sue did within the first 2 weeks that was not initially accounted for (she completed it prior to June 1st)? bericht work |
| Posted: 16 Jun 2004 03:27 AM PDT Hi Jan, The problem is that, the execution of these groups of tasks is dynamic, depending upon the availability of the resource and the completion of its predecessor task. let me take an example. Suppose there is a group with 5 tasks with priority 250. And there is a group with priority 300. The 300 priority group could not be started because of its predecessor not being completed. Meanwhile, the 250 priority group starts off during this time. But after completing 3 of its 5 tasks, Project finds that the 300 priority group is ready,because now it sees that its predecessor is complete. So, Project stops the execution of the 250 priority group and jumps to the 300 priority group. What i want is that, once a group has started, it should run to completion before it moves to another group, even if a higher priority group is ready for execution. Can such a requirement be accomplished in Project ? Hope i have made things clear. Please let me know. Thanks in advance, Dilip. tasks of an othe group to the first before One is bericht thee between priority in levelling. tasks after then under a 100, the the are before if |

| How to show Holidays on a Gnatt chart?? Posted: 15 Jun 2004 08:51 AM PDT Julie I have set the standard calendar and checked that is is set in Format->Timescales. One further option in there - do i set the Draw: options to: Behind Task Bar or In front of taskbar? (Note: i'm only using one tier - it's a bit odd that the one tier is the middle tier??) In Tools-->Change Working Time I've set the 2-week shut down period in the standard calendar as non-working time. But when i then view the project - nothing! No greyed out 2-weeks in the Gantt chart. Any ideas? Rob |

| Displaying holidays in the Gantt chart Posted: 15 Jun 2004 03:20 AM PDT Hi, There is a macro on my website as well; it groups consecutive holidays into one task.

| Posted: 15 Jun 2004 12:13 AM PDT Hmmm, you've got me stumped on that one! I am aware that MSP 2002 has the option of doing EV (BCWP) against the "Physical % Complete", but I'm not sure if there any additional options that have to be selected in order for it to start calculating. I presume that you have set the "Status Date"? Sorry to be of absolutely no use to you on this one - but I just can't think of why BCWP would show zero values, when all the other EV data is there.

| Should we used Project or Excel? Posted: 14 Jun 2004 09:37 AM PDT You might want to have a look at Task Manager 2005 (www.orbisoft.com) too. It can be 'dumbed down' for the 'average' users by graying out most menu functions depending on their log-on name.

| Posted: 14 Jun 2004 08:07 AM PDT Just following up - if you are using the desktop version, you can run a report showing items due to complete within your specified horizon. Then run it every morning or whenever you wish, and distribute as you see fit. This is not the automated process you describe, but may help. You can do some VB work as well to launch emails, but this is not out-of-the-box functionality. communication option is define the events Project managers can members to include capability is not however. Hope this message project so that right of the task that reminders. Anyone? |
