Give your schedule tasks an exact start and/or end date. You can even adjust these to the hour.
To be able to change the start and end date for schedule tasks,
you must be in the "Project management" project group.
Soon you will be able to find the training video for the article here.
Click Path:
- Workspace Planung > Projekt auswählen > Terminpläne > Terminplan öffnen
- The start and/or end date can now be changed in 4 ways. When creating a schedule template, you can only access the italicized ways :
- Double-click in the table in the fields of the "Start" or "End" columns. You can then select the desired day.
- Double-click on the bar of the task in the gantt or use the button in the upper right corner to open the navigation bar. In the first tab "General" you can now change the start or end date. You can also enter exact times here.
- Click in the middle of the bar in the Gantt and keep the mouse button pressed. You can now move the bar. This changes the start date.
- Move the mouse over a bar in the Gantt, click on the points at the beginning of the task and drag the process to change the start date (duration of task is not changed). Click on the points at the end of the task and drag the process to change the end date.
- Important:
- If you change the end date, the duration of the operation is adjusted appropriately.
- If you change the start date, the duration of the process remains the same.
- If the start or end date is changed, this will affect the constraint types of the task. When the start date is changed, the constraint type "Start no earlier than" is automatically set and when the end date is changed, the constraint type "End no earlier than" is automatically set.
