Hi Niles
I have never used a WBS in any programme - it is a waste of time.
I just ignore it and let the software sort it out if it wants to.

Hi Mike,
Thank you very much for your help.
I have learned much knowledge from your detail information. But, WBS are not included in your reply. I wonder if you can give me some further information about WBS in multi-level scheduel.
Thank you,
Regards

Hi Niles
Level 4 is where the construction tasks are plotted and linked.
Each task shoud represent 1 trade in 1 location that is the right size for 1 trade to work on its own.
When you have put together all the level 4 tasks in each location then Level 3 is the summary bar that covers all the level 4 tasks.
When you have a number of level 3 summaries you set up a level 2 summary.
All the level 2 summaries then come under level 1 which is the project duration.
A simple example:
Level 4 = all tasks to build a house.
Level 3 = the summary bar for each house.
Level 2 = the summary bar for all the houses in the street.
Level 1 = the summary bar for all the streets in the development.
I hope that is clear.
Best regards
