SLOW SCHEDULE

Hi Ahmed;

I have dealt with such problem before. In addition to our friends recommendations, mine are;

1- Make sure you are not summarizing the activities since it will dramatically reduce the speed while scrolling. Format, Summarize All, set it to None.

2- If you do not intend to get any scheduling report, make sure that all 3 check boxes in Tools, Schedule (especially Out of Sequence report) are off. They take much time to prepare. Even if you push F9, with Out of Sequence check box on, it will spend much time to prepare this report but won’t show you anything!!

3-Go to Tools, Option, Autocost Rule and remove tick mark from “Perform these calculations during each schedule computation”. It will also accelerate your schedule when you don’t need it.

4- Make sure the P3 version you are using is ver. 3.1. From version 3.0 to version 3.1 a great development on scheduling speed has happened. You will not believe it until test it especially with large number of activities.

Hope these will make it much faster.

Dear Ahmed,

You might consider turning off automatic scheduling in Tools, schedule, options. If this is already off, please remove unwanted columns from your layout.
