Delays on Projects

Once a project is delayed and a revised programme of works is required, can changes be highlighted on the original programme show delay is time?

RE: Delays on Projects

Hi Arivantha

Thank you for your application. When you are ready to begin work on your project save your baseline (Tools > Tracking > Save baseline). Now if there is a change to your plan you can see variance from your originally agreed schedule by looking at the Tracking Gantt View (from the View menu). By default the original plan is coloured in grey and the live plan is in colour.

I hope this helps - let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Link tasks using predecessor column - project

a. First, note ID number of the task you want to link to (predecessor). Then, in the predecessor column of the task you want to link to (successor), type the predecessor task's ID number.
b. The link will be a Finish to Start (the default type).
c. Or you can add in a code for a different relationship type
i. SS = Start to Start
ii. FF = Finish to Finish
iii. SF = Start to Finish
d. You don't have to type the task ID numbers in any specific order, but you must separate multiple tasks with commas.
