Hi All.
Can anyone please help?
I am trying to creat a level of effort activity and have linked it as a SS with its predecessor and FF with its successor both with zero lag.
When I schedule, the level of effort activity only shows the start date as start and finish date with zero duration. I have tried putting the number of duration and finish date manually but it goes back to showing start date with zero duration and a negative float of 1 as soon as as I schedule.
Please help.
Cheers!

LOE is what P6 calls a hammock.
Hi Gary
Thanks for the information - why not just create a hammock?
Best regards

Patrick:
the LOE Start date will be the earliest start date of all the SS predecessors of the LOE
the LOE finish date will be the latest finish date of all the FF predecessors of the LOE
Mike:
Patrick is using FF for a LOE (level of effort) activity. These are hamock-type activities in P6 typically used for spreading non-direct resources / prelims, and require FF to operate correctly
Hi Patrick
I can think of no situation in the construction process that requires a FF link.
Perhaps you can enlighten me why you need it.
Best regards

Thanks Garry.
In that case the LOE activity will assume the very 1st activity date as it's start date right?
cheers!

Patrick,
The FF relationship needs to be a predecessor instead of a successor.
LOEs should not have any successors.
