Hi Rafael
Of course the non-working periods in any calendar are flexible.
If the suspension period changes you just change the calendar to suit.
You will need as many calendars as there are different suspension periods affecting different tasks.
I once did a full delay analysis and acceleration claim using nothing but different calendars.

Can you make the available calendar days dynamic as to follow logic? Suspension periods are not static, the provided suspension dates are projected but they might vary, on item 1 as per the finish date of Task AAA and on item 2 as per the finish date of Task BBB. This is not a Bar Chart.
Best regards,
Rafael
Hi Yusuk
A much easier way is to set up some calendars with Non Work days for the suspended periods and apply it to the affected tasks.

Hi, thanks for the reply... Ill give it a try...
1.
Divide Task BBB/CCC… ea into two Tasks named, BBB (Suspended) /CCC (Suspended) … and BBB (Resume)/CCC (Resume)... Update Task BBB (Suspended) /CCC (Suspended) … as finished on January 31, link Task BBB (Resume)/CCC (Resume)... with a FS predecessor link to AAA and link to appropriate successors as to maintain logic, if finish of AAA is delayed start of the successors is delayed and so on. Keep a FS link between Suspend and Resume activities as not to leave open ends on Suspend activities.
2.
Make multiple tasks to be suspended “hammock” / “LOE” tied by the end to the finish of task BBB. If they must continue add required activities linked to BBB as predecessor and link to appropriate predecessors/successors as to maintain logic, if finish of BBB is delayed start of the successors is delayed and so on.
Not sure if under this case by suspended you mean finished or suspended and resume activities to follow new logic so I am trying to cover both cases.
Use suspend activity updating only when you do not know resume logic.
