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 Folks,
I am getting problem for changing dates in Sure Trak. I had entered all activity discription in my new project. Next day I tried to apply dates on those activities but it didn’t work. I don’t know what’s the problem. Even I tried to change "activities type" and made them "independent" but not working.
Does anybody know how to change dates or what’s the problem or how to solve this problem please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks

Dear musawar Shaikh

The intension of the software is to calculate the dates for you. When an activity is added the dates will be calculated for you by entering a start date of the project and then adding relationships amongst the activities. You may apply constraints to activities to prevent the tasks before or after dates.

I suggest you read up on the basics of Critical Path planning as a start to understand the basics of software such as SureTrak and then read the manual or a book obtain some training in the software.
