Recurring Tasks

We are entering weekly meetings as a recurring task but it seems you have to add resources to each meeting week by week. Is there a way to allocate resources to a recurring task so they are linked to each event?

RE: Recurring Tasks

Hi Joanne

Thank you for your question - you would need to add the resources manually. The recurring task tool creates the events rather the assignments.

I'm sorry that I can't be of more help. Do 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.
