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.

Hi all,

 

I'm using Vico Control 2009 demo mode and I would like to know if it is possible to put multiple crews in a particular activity. 

Grateful.

Conditonal Yes,

On the edit task/resources tab the crew composition is composed by you - so define it with two crews; after the crew is added then change the supplier from the supplier defined on the general tab to the 2nd crews supplier.

Hi Mike

 

No, by this way the program reduces the duration in each locations. I`ve learned another way: Spliting the task so you choice the locations for each "crew".

 

Best regards.

Hi Jose

I have limited knowledge of Vico but I do recall that you can apply any number of crews to any one task line.

As I recall if you have resourced the task correctly then by moving the end of the distance line horizontally across the time line the number of crews adjust automatically.

Best regards
