Resource allocation

I have a resource, SH, who is available to me for 40% of a 35 hour week. I need him to do a task that will take 2 days ie. 14 hours. This should mean that the task will take 1 week elapsed time to complete. I have set the task to Fixed Work, the resource availability to 40%, and the task duration to 2ed. But still seem to be showing a task duration of 2 days on the Gantt chart. So - I'm missing something somewhere!
Regards,
Karen

RE: Resource allocation

Hi Karen

Thanks for your question - and apologies for it taking a while for me to get back to you. Would you be able to send an example project file showing of the problem you are experiencing? You can email it to info@stl-training.co.uk and mark it for the attention of Andrew. I will take a look and get back to you.

Kind regards,

Andrew
