RE: Mocrosoft projects

Hi Kio

Thank you for your question. When you are setting up your project you can use Project > Project information to set your project's start date.

If your planning is underway and you want to move your project forward you can use View > Toolbars > Analysis > Adjust dates to pick the project up and move it to a new date. This will preserve slack in your plan and move full constraint dates too.

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

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Avoid Accidental Constraints

The initial default table is the Entry table. Enter a task name and duration, but do not enter start or finish dates. Form the plan using links, predecessors. Typing dates introduces constraints. To remove these constraints, double click on a task, and on the Advanced page of Task Information set the constraint back to As Soon As Possible (all other options are there too.)
