Hi
I have a very basic question. My Project has 8 hours per day. (Hours Per Day Setting) Resource A works for 9 hours per day and Resource B works for 8 hours per day.(I Set up the Resource Calendar)
I created a fixed units task (say Task 1) with 65 hours of Work and assigned both A &B to this task at 50%. Now Project Calculates the duration for this task as 9 days with work assigned to both A & B as
32.5 hours. How does Project Arrive at the duration of 9 days, is my question?.
As Work = Duration * Units, going by this logic:
For A => 9 days * 9 hours per day * 50% = 40.5 hours of Work
For B => 9 days * 8 hours per day * 50% = 36 hours of Work
Total = 76.5 hours, where as the work that I entered is 65 hours.
How does Project actually do the calculations?
