(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.

Can I assign a resource lag for the resources? If I have a piling activity of 10 days, I want to assign the piling rig for last 5 days and in a similar manner, I want to assign a resource for the first 5 days in a 10 day activity. I tried using original lag but it is increasing the duration.
Hello Uma
Duration type matters when resources are assigned to an activity. So setting the correct duration type is important when resource are loaded. You can set Fixed Duration & Units/ Time OR Fixed Duration & Units if it is the schedule is what is important for that activity. You can use Fixed Units/Time if Resource Availability is the majour issue for an activity. You can use Fixed Units if Budget (cost) is what is importantas far as that activity is concerened
Hi,
If I want to load the programme with the cost using the resources, what precautions need to be taken with respect to duration type? O any other measures to be taken? Do I need to uncheck/check any boxes anywhere? I have been using expenses tab to cost load the prog. I would like to use it as a resource. Can someone please advise?
