Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi guys!
I am finding trouble to customize the duration setting for summary tasks in P5. What I am seeing is that P5 calculates the duration of summary tasks based on calender 5days x 8 hrs/day. How can I change this setting?

The duration of summary task are calculated based on Default calendar. To change it go to Enterprise-->Calendars... and
change the Default calendar by checking the box.
