I’ve a task with multiple resourses. One of them shows 200% in units. I try
to change to 100% and it changes it back. I can’t seem to change anything
that will allow me to change that. Help? I know it’s just a combo of effort driven, type, etc. But can’t make it work!
On that same note, how can I tell project to NEVER use anything but 100%.
These are all people and can only be <= 100%.
Well I can’t tell you what I did 
, but I got it working this morning. As much as I THINK I understand how this stuff works, I stil sometimes can’t figure out why Project is doing something. v2003 is better for me, but … The dialog looks a bit weird now as the effort driven checkbox is checked AND greyed out but since I changed it to fixed work it makes some sense.
You mention resource pools. Do you have a good link explaining how they work. When I’ve set them up for this master/sub project they don’t work as I expect. I’ve tried to make each one the master pool and neither option gave me the results I’m looking for. What I want is for the master project to have it’s set of resources, which are available in the sub projects and are leveled across the master and sub-projects. I want additional resources in the sub projects which are only used by them. Right now the resources duplicate. I want the sub projects worked on by the sub project managers and show only their resources and then for it all to roll up into my master project correctly.
