Calculating 6.5hr work days
Ok that title sucks.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have developers that work 8 an hour day, but they don't code for 8 hours in a day. So I am trying to get the timeline to represent a 6.5 hr day. I go into project options and set hours per day at 6.5 and hours per week as 32.5. However, if I put in a task of 8 hours in it still claims that the developer is finishing the task in one day. The expected result would be that they would finish it the next day. How should I be doing this? I want to avoid setting the developer at (6.5/8) 81.25% because then i have to adjust that everyplace. |

If you don't want to change the Resource's max units - then you'll need to change the developers calendars to only allow them to work 6.5 hours per day. If you then assign the resource 8 hours of work, the task finish date will change.
Changing this in Project Options is not the answer. |
