Hi

How would you deal with allocating one resource with two tasks - both at 50% for 1 month then full time but only on one of those tasks.
I don't really want to create two separate resources for this.

Thanks

RE: MS Project

Hello Michelle,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft Project 2010 course with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding allocating resources to two tasks at 50% per task.

Unfortunately you haven't provided enough information to enable me to answer your question effectively.

1) How long are both tasks
2) What task relationships have you established i.e. Finish-to-Finish or Start-to Start

Please remember, resource allocation cannot be split on a single task. What you are trying to do will require a single task to be split into more than one task which must be linked with a Finish-to-Start relationship. Sort of like a part 1, followed by part 2 etc. then you can assign whatever percentages you want providing they don't exceed a combined total of 100%.

I look forward to your reply...


Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney
