Hello,
again one of my Blog reader is in trouble: “SIR, PLEASE HELP ME IN MAKING A NIGHT SHIFT CALENDER WITH A DETAIED EXAMPLE WITH A BREAK DUARTION 01:00 AM TO 02:00 AM AND THE START TIME OF THIS SHIFT WILL BE FROM 06:00 PM IN MS PROJECT 2010.”
I di not get any further information about this problem, so I do not know is that night shift is for whole project or just for some resources, so I assume that is for whole project!
I will crate brand new Calendar:
Now I will create a brand new Calendar:
and then:
I will get this:
and:
Now I will assign this calendar to the whole Project like this:
¸
Now, back to my Task:
and:
and finally:
As you can see the work will be from 18:00 to 03:00 with a break between 01:00 and 02:00!
Few Tips:
- If you assign a Resource with different work time, (Resource Calendars) this Calendar will take a precedence
- If you have a Task with specific Calendar it will take a precedence (High Priority)
Be aware of that.
Regards
