Is there a way to lock when a task starts, regardless of leveling? right now if i have a 5 day task starting on monday morning and a 1 day task starting on wednesday morning, and put "Must Start On" constraints on both, leveling still moves the wednesday task to start on the next monday morning, after the first task is done. i'd like it to split the 5 day task so that the 1 day task is done on wednesday and the 5 day task resumes on thursday and continues through next monday. thanks! scott
Hi Scott, I suggest removing the constraints. Insert the priority field in a task view. Set the priority of the 1 day task to 1000 and leave the 5d task to 500. In the leveling command, select the option leveling can split and then level using Priority, Standard. I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
