I need to show a "provide on-call support" task for several support teams for an IT project. The start of this on-call support for my project is linked to the start date/time of the first activity on the cut over weekend. The end is determined by the finish date/time of the last activity on the cut over weekend. Thus, the actual duration is dynamic so I want it calculated. I've added predecessors as "xFS, yFF" (where x and y are task ids), just need to be told what option I flick (there are so many) to enable this dynamic duration....

Long Haired Git, Have a look at the Hammock Task FAQ: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm#Hammock%20Tasks NB : check that the task Type is *not* Fixed Duration. Hope this helps, Gérard Ducouret "Long Haired Git" <Long Haired Git@discussions.microsoft.com> a écrit dans le message de news: 111A4C01-28F7-42C9-98CF-BED3A1264C33@microsoft.com... >I need to show a "provide on-call support" task for several support teams >for > an IT project. > The start of this on-call support for my project is linked to the start > date/time of the first activity on the cut over weekend. > The end is determined by the finish date/time of the last activity on the > cut over weekend. > Thus, the actual duration is dynamic so I want it calculated. > > I've added predecessors as "xFS, yFF" (where x and y are task ids), just > need to be told what option I flick (there are so many) to enable this > dynamic duration.... >
