Setting a start date for a new project using a template

Hi Shamim

Thank you for your question. You can access the Adjust Dates button by turning on the Analysis toolbar. Go to View > Toolbars > Analysis

When you click Adjust dates and enter a new date MS Project will move the project to the date you set, it will also re-calculate any constraints in the plan so that slack (float) is also preserved.

I hope this helps - let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew
