how to enter equipment resources
Hi All,
I've gotten as far as realising that equipment (for example a machine) is not entered as a material resource - rather, it is entered in the same was as a human resource, ie it does a certain number of hours of "work" each week, and it can be assigned an hourly rate (I assume the price to rent it, or the capital cost averaged over it's lifetime). The problem comes when I want to assign both a person and a machine to a task. Obviously, I want to define a task that takes a certain number of hours and requires both an operator and a machine. However, when I add the machine as the second resource, MS Project halves the duration of the project. I assume the problem stems from the "Effort Driven" default - so, how do I change this, and do I want fixed units, duration or work? Thanks, Benson |
