Calendar by défault and specific calendar

Another point may help.



If you link two activity together, by default, the link will base on the predecessor calendar, however, you can change it by changing the schedule option to use to successor calendar.

Yes indeed all summary WBS durations are based on default calendar. However you can create your own task under the WBS you want to be calculated by different calendar and set it to WBS Summary activity type then assign the Calendar you like. No predecessors/successors needed.

Patricia,



Sorry, I don’t quite get your query. Can you explain it more details so I can absorb the problem.



Note:

WBS summary inherit the duration from the WBS element or any activities/ task under your WBS summary. What ever calendar you used for those activities under WBS summary the start and finish date should be the earliest start of the task and latest early finish date of the task.



Regards,

Rodel

I generally don’t rely on the values indicated in the WBS summary groups for anything other than start and finish dates, as some rather interesting results are shown for Float/%/duration..

Patricia,



You can use and define as many calendars you want in a project but you need to assign it in to your activities. All those activities without any calendar assign it will use the default calendar. You can assign a default calendar in a project module.



Select Enterprise-> Projects then select the default tab and select a calendar to use as default in calendar box.



Hope this help.
