From: DianneZ on 7 Apr 2010 18:49 HI - Love this group - you are such a fund of information. in project 2007 - I cannot explain why assigning overtime behaves differently if the task is set to 100% complete first and then assign overtime or assign overtime and then set 100% complete EG: task A - 24h - one resource assign OT of 8h - Duration moves to 2days add 8 hours to the work column to reflect that this is additional to the 24hours of work duration moves back to 3days work shows 10.67 hrs per day (OK - understood) mark complete - duration the same 3 days Now..... same duration task task B - 24 h -one resource MARK COMPLETE then add 8 hrs OT no change in duration! stays at 3D It seems the orders matters - can you help me understand why the order of setting complete matters? Thanks wizards all!

Actual dates never get re-calculated. -- Rod Gill Microsoft MVP for Project - http://www.project-systems.co.nz Author of the only book on Project VBA, see: http://www.projectvbabook.com "DianneZ" <DianneZ(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7AD6F75E-7CD1-462A-B1D1-CC0D527EB35A(a)microsoft.com... > HI - Love this group - you are such a fund of information. > > in project 2007 - > I cannot explain why assigning overtime behaves differently if the task is > set to 100% complete first and then assign overtime or assign overtime > and > then set 100% complete > EG: > task A - 24h - one resource > assign OT of 8h - Duration moves to 2days > add 8 hours to the work column to reflect that this is additional to the > 24hours of work duration moves back to 3days work shows 10.67 hrs per day > (OK > - understood) > mark complete - duration the same 3 days > Now..... > same duration task > task B - 24 h -one resource > MARK COMPLETE > then add 8 hrs OT > no change in duration! stays at 3D > > It seems the orders matters - can you help me understand why the order of > setting complete matters? > Thanks wizards all! > > __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus > signature database 5008 (20100407) __________ > > The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. > > http://www.eset.com > > > __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 5008 (20100407) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com
