Hi James - as a person who has never trusted software resource levelling algorithms my methos is to set up the gantt chart with the resource histo’s below and the free float column open. I then move tasks around within their free float to try to level out any peaks; moving within total float I am very wary of as it applies to a path of activities. To be honest, in my experience, if there is no easy solution to getting rid of massive peaks because of minimum float available then it points to too tight a schedule anyway,



cheers,



Omar

Dear James,



I would suggest that you search on the net for the case that you want to know more about. There are plenty of sites that provide this kind of information.



Best,



Samer
