Extra time to a task
How do you add extra 'buffer' time to a task / reduce time on a task - not the number of days.

RE: Extra time to a task
Hi Jo
If I understand you correctly you might want to adjust how much work a resource will be carrying out on a task e.g. allowing 5 days duration for a task that takes perhaps an hour per day.
You can achieve this by switching to Resource Usage view and editing the assigned work for each task on a day by day basis.
I hope this is helpful. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:Keep constraining dates to a minimumAs far as possible avoid fixing the dates of your tasks. For example try to steer of clear dragging task bars in the Gantt chart to move them on the timeline or entering dates directly into the Start / Finish fields. |
