Project Intro Intermediate course

Holiday Calander/Change working time

Is there any possible way to link an ongoing excel holiday sheet to the change working time calander?

My problem is that I do not deal with staff leave but I would like to keep an up to date holiday calander.

If you have any advice I would be most grateful.

Many Thanks

RE: Holiday Calander/Change working time

Hi Jen,

Thank you for your question.

Unfortunately I am not aware of a method to do this.

You can copy other data directly from excel to Project such as resource and task information.

Sorry I couldn't have been of more help.

Regards

Simon
