Resource Over-Allocation

Hi there,

I'll try and phrase this as best I can to try and get the problem across - let me know if it's unclear!

When a resource is over allocated, is there any way to make Project extend deadlines on projects, or move tasks around automatically until the resource is not over-allocated anymore.

Thanks,

David

RE: Resource Over-Allocation

Hi David,

Thank you for your question.

If you are referring to Microsoft Project there is a tool called Resource Levelling which decides on which task to delay in order to resolve the over allocated resource.

Please find the link attached which gives you an overview of how the tool works:

I hope this helps.

Good luck.

Regards

Simon
