Natasha has attended:
Project Intro Intermediate course

Constraint Times

If I had an event date already decided, how could i put this in the gantt chart without making many contstraints?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Constraint Times

Hi Natasha

Thanks for your question. Your task will need a constraint of some kind if you are working to a specific date. Project would prefer your constraints to be partial (such as start no earlier than) rather than full (must...)

The remaining tasks can be left with no constraint so that Project is able to calculate your dates for you.

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

Kind regards,

Andrew
