From: Shahriar Nour Khondokar on 7 Apr 2010 12:19 HI.. is it possible to have a fixed-work task scheduled over elapsed duration? In other words, i have a fixed-work task which I want to occur in non-working time too; i.e. after 5PM in the Standard Calendar. Please let me how to accomplish this. Thanks
From: Barbara - Austria on 7 Apr 2010 12:26 Hi, does entering 7 edays (instead of 7 days) not what you want it to do? It is working for fixed-work tasks also.

From: Shahriar Nour Khondokar on 7 Apr 2010 12:42 Hi my duration is actually being calculated by MS Project based on the value I enter for Work and Resource availability %; i.e. I dont enter any value for duration. But i still want the work to occur during non-working time using elapsed duration. Is this possible? If so how?

From: Barbara - Austria on 7 Apr 2010 13:01 Hi, now I got it (at least I think so). First you need a second calendar: Tools - Change Working Time ...Create New Calendar. Create a new one, if you don't need any holidays. Go to tab 'Work Weeks', mark [Default] and click on Details.... Change working times for the days you want to perform your tasks. Finish with OK. Open Task Information, select your new calendar and enable 'Scheduling ignores resource calendars' on tab 'Advanced'. If you have questions let me know!

The task would need to be set to a 24 hour calendar, with the resources assigned as well - or the task is set to ignore resource calendars. - Andrew Lavinsky Blog: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/epm > Hi > my duration is actually being calculated by MS Project based on the > value I > enter for Work and Resource availability %; i.e. I dont enter any > value for > duration. > But i still want the work to occur during non-working time using > elapsed duration. > > Is this possible?
