Beck,



Deb is correct. I forgot to mention that you need to set the decimal on duration format. Edit-> Users Preferences... under your project menu.

Select Time Unit Tab and change the duration format to 1 or 2 decimal. If this is not set the calculation still based on 7.5 hours but shown as 8hrs round off. You will notice only on the total durations.



Regards,

Rodel

Thanks for your reply Rodel..



I had already done that, but I suppose my question is more because when I assign a resource to a 1 day activity, it assigns that resource with 8hrs of work and budget - even though the calendar for that resource is also set as default 7.5hr/day.. I can override this and type in 7.5 in the units column, which gives the right budget, but it still displays 8 (because of rounding?) in the units column.. Is there a way to correct this and show the decimal place in the units field?..



Thanks again!



Beck

Hi Beck,



Yes you can set the calendar for 7.5hrs default for a work day.



First Create a global calendar with 7.5 hrs working day. Then click this calendar or set as default.

Rodel
