End To Start Projects
Can you automatically with an end date get the dates going backwards?

RE: End To Start Projects
Hi Howard
Thanks for your question. You can set Project to schedule from the end date rather than the start date by going to Project > Project Information and choosing to schedule from the project end date. Making this switch however means that your tasks by default will start as late as possible rather than as soon as possible which is often less desirable than scheduling from the project start date.
I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.
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. |
