Hi Jan,

We use Project to track actual hours on many projects. We enter the actual
hours into individual Microsoft Project Plans each week that connect to a
resource pool. However, when we enter hours, it recalculates in many
instances to decimals. Our PM's are very frustrated by this. Any thoughts?

Thank you.
