If you want to do it the right way and you are using P3, you should change your planning units to hours instead of days. Then you go to Calendar to configure you shifts.

Nishikant,



You just simply go to calendar, add a calendar and change the working hours according to your requirement then assign the calendar to the activity.



The other option is, if only few activities are involved, I normally just make a duplicate of each activity and classify it as second shift activity and link it to the original activity with finish to finish relationship. This will give you some flexiblity to assign a different production rate or budget for the 2nd shift activities. You can also filter the second shift activities. Depending on how you planned the production rates for the second shift activities, the duration of the original activities (now the first shift) must be revised accordingly. This approach maybe very primitive, I find it easy to handle.



Regards,



Nestor
