Hi Moutaz,
I saw already your schedule. It seems that you have too much float which is not advisable. But to answer your query why you have a Float of 2days in your START WORKING activity?, you have to adjust your lag to its Successor;
A5310 Hand Over FS 105
then your float will be Zero. Also, put FF relationship if you are linking to Milestones not FS. As what I have mentioned in my previous post, you have to link a more logical relationship to achieve a good critical path. Try to avoid to much Float its no longer realistic....200days and more...you know what i mean.
cheers,
JEFF
Dear all,
There is no must finish by constraint and no constraints at all.

Please check,
press f9 Schedule--Option--Define Critical as ---tick the total float less then or equal to 0h
may be this can be work for you.
Moutaz,
It seems that you have a Must Finish by date define which might be the cause of the problem.
Hi Moutaz
Have another look at thread nr 3

Thanks everybody for response,
Rodel, only one activity out of three is long
I am really stuck with this program, I could not find where is the problem?

Moutaz
Hi Moutaz,
Though you have completed your program, you have to check your critical activities then once more link it to be more realistic with your logic.
cheers,
JEFF
Moutaz,
Check the logic and filter the longest path. I suspect that it was lying on 3 long activities.
No multiple calendars, no resource in the schedule and no constraints.

Hi Moutaz,
Do you use multiple calendars in your schedule?
If you did not use any constraints of Start No Earlier Than type then it may be caused by multiple calendars (and this may be true) or resource leveling (and this is wrong - Primavera does not calculate resource constrained floats properly).
Hi Moutaz
Following Vladimirs question here are a few more.
1. Do you use very long tasks - 30 days plus?
2. Are you using SS FF Links?
3. Are you using + - Lead Lags?
4. Are any tasks set ALAP?
Best regards

Did you level resources?
