linking tasks to resource availability

how do you link tasks to resource availability, ie if you have limited availability of resource how do you get the tasks to snap to the availability time

RE: linking tasks to resource availability

Hi Jason,

Thankyou for your question

The best way to accomplish this is to have the Automatic Levelling switched on. This will automatically attempt to resolve resourcing issues as they occure, and one method will be to split and delay tasks in line with resource availability.

I would caution however, that automatic levelling can result in rapid and radical alterations to a project plan and should be used with caution


 

MS Project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
