PROJECT 2010 WORKING / CALANDER TIMES
Hi,
i have set up my calander and resource calander to 7 day weeks working from 08:00 to 20:00 so they both match and yet for my tasks such as starting on the 23.04.12 to the 25.04.12 it states that the duration is 2.5 days? how is this possible?
i am trying to ammend a project plan given to me and am unable to get and real answers from the person who put iot together, combined with having several plans from different companies i dont think this is helping me but i need to see them all together
Regards

Hi James,
Thank you for your question.
It seems the problem may exist on the Schedule options within Project. Try the following:
1. Go to the File tab, Options and click and then click on Schedule on the left panel.
2. Change the 'Default Start Time' to 08:00
3. Change the 'Default End Time' to 20:00
4. Change the 'Hours per day' to 11
5. Change the 'Number of days' to 7
6. Change the 'Days per month' to 28
I hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.
Regards,
Simon

Hi,
there is no option for "number of days" to be changed, i have "hours per week" instead and this can be set from 1-100??
what should i try to input, altering the other information hasnt changed the "partial days"
Regards
RE: PROJECT 2010 WORKING / CALANDER TIMES
Hi James,
My apologies the 'Number of days' should be 'Hours per week'. In the 'Hours per week' field enter 77 hours which is 7 days at 11 hours each day.
After speaking to a colleague, reset the those settings back to what they were originally and this should reset the durations.
Now take a copy of the durations(for reference) and then change the values as per my email. You can then replace the incorrect durations with the original(copied) referenced data.
I hope this helps.
Regards
Simon
