Total Time in 2003

[JohnG513]

Hi,
The duration column reflects the elapsed time of tasks but I want to look at the man days required to achieve the task (or tasks). For example I have a plan where the elapsed time for a bunch of tasks is 25 days but the total man days to do the tasks is 94 days. I want to be able to see a column which displays the 94 days.

Can anybody advise which column looks at this.

Many thanks for any help.



Cheers
John

If you've assigned resources, the Work field shows work or effort and should roll up all work from subtasks into a summary task.

Duration = span of time (in working time) from the task start to task finish. It is not elapsed time as elapsed time counts non-working time (weekends, holidays etc.)

I hope this helps.

Hi Julie,
Many thanks. I'd figured it out.
