Part-time resource

What's the best way to plan resources who will be working part-time on the project, when they do not work on fixed days each week? Using percentages gets very complicated. Is there a simpler option?

RE: part-time resource

Sorry Jane, but no.

The practical way is to ensure they are in the Resource Sheet as a percentage. Make sure the resource calendar is the Standard calendar. Then after you allocate them to a task, go to Resource Usage view and manually edit the working hours which Project has assigned.

RE: part-time resource

Thanks Alan,

I suspected that was the case!
