HELP!
Well I thought this problem was taken care of in P6.7, but so far I’m not seeing it. I have a START MILESTONE tied to an activity by way of (FS). My milestone start on 9/15 and its successor should on 9/16, but instead it start on the same day. I’ve even gone under user preferences and set my DATE TIME to show minutes (12 hour) and adjusted the constrained milestone to start at the last minute of my 10 hr work day. Still, no luck.
Hi
Due to the working hours equal 10 hours a day, you should change `default 8 hour a day` to `10 hour a day`.
Admin> Admin Preferences>Time Periods tabs and change the working hours daily, weekly and monthly
And also change working times in your calender, `default 8 hour a day` to `10 hour a day`
Enterprise>Calender>`Choose your calender` Modify>Workweek
Take care
ok,
I didn't see ur second post where you said u have many milestones.
In this case what Satish mentioned would be the best thing to do.

Hi Lopez
I donot think this is a fault in P6 coz when you look at it a start milestone doesnot have any duration. It looks as though u r wasting a day saying your project has started.
Anyways have you tried scheduling with ur data date set at the last working hour of the day.....for eg DD:15/9/10 18:00(or the last hour set in ur calendar)

1d lag is a remedy, but that is not the correct way to do this. Especially when you have many start milestones in the schedule i.e. recv material, recv Dwgs, NTP, Contract Award. All of these examples would be most likely followed by a task dependent activity. I've seen this issue before in P5/P6 and thought It had been resolved, but the steps was told to use are not working anymore.
Any other suggestions?
HI Lopegr,
ur milestone has 0 duration? can't u give a lag of 1 day?
