In the Open Standard

Hello, Powerproject fanatics

Maybe the answer to my question is so obvious, however I was not able to find it

I want to enter the task duration in days; therfore I key in "5" for a task whose duration in "5 working days"

When I enter the duration of tasks in the spreadsheet, Powerproject always converts these 5 "days" into 5 "weeks", and displayes the value "25d" in the duration column.

Having looked everywhere in the dlalog boxes and the Online help, I cannot find my way.

Who will help me?

Thank you,

Alexandre

    Hi Alexandre,On the View

    Hi Alexandre,

    On the View ribbon, you can change the default snapping unit in the drop down list:

     

     

    I just tested it and it is this field that controls what happens when you just tap "5" into the duration field on the spreadsheet.

    Thanks,

    Ben @ Powerproject
