Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Any software should handle resource leveling down to the minimum duration you can assign to an activity, you got to be missing something. I do not use P6 but see it can display 1/100 minutes.

Try checking Activity Duration Type.

If the above does not works then I suggest trying with the following simple schedule from scratch and see what happens. One resource A and one resource B units are available. There are no activity links, very simple. Even if one second activities it should do it.

Good luck.

Hi,

 

You might want to look at the "Max unit / time" on the resource which assigned to those activities.

See if the max unit/time still allow the resource to be executed on the same hour or not..

 

Regard,
