Gaps in Critical Path

Hello Planners,

Am having difficulty in schedule I've created where I've assigned particular resources that use a 5 day calendar instead of the 6 day applied to the rest of the project.

All good as I know no concrete pours will occour on a Saturday however the critical path now sees a gap between the tasks and doesn't show for these tasks now.

Can work around by entering 1 day gap to show nearly critical but when you filter by critical it only shows those with 0 gap - true critical path.

Anyone had this issue and found a fix?

Kind regards,

Craig Adams

Hi Craig

There will always be problems when different calendars clash on a single task with multiple resources.

Do you have a single task for "pour concrete"?

That would be a way to solve your problem - set the 5 day calendar on the Pour Concrete task and on the resource modelling dialogue tick the "use task calendar" button.

Best regards
