I have created a Schedule which consists of fabrication and Construction Activities. Since this is a Shipyard Project during the construction phase the work will be done 24 hrs.
I have following settings in my project.
Project calendar is Standard.( 7 days a week and 10.5 hrs per day).Since this will be the working duration in fabrication Phase.
However in the construction period the working hrs should be 24 hrs per day, so I have assigned task calendars to all the activities.
My default working hrs per day is 10.5 hrs from 7 am to 18.30 pm.
I created a duration field with the formula : IIf([Task Calendar]="24 Hours",[Duration]*10.5/24,[Duration])
I am facing below problems.
The duration for the shipyard activities is not showing correctly. I mean in the duration tab it is showing 1.3 days but the start to finsh date is only 3 days.
I created a duration field with the formula : IIf([Task Calendar]="24 Hours",[Duration]*10.5/24,[Duration]). This work fine in converting my duration, however I noticed that when I input a new activity the duration is fixed at 1day and start and finish date does not calculate.
Can I not manage to show the duration and the start and finish dates correctly in MSP while working with diff calendar options...........
2) What should be the approach for preparing schedule involving diff working hrs in diff phases...
Please guide me...
