Hi everyone, 

I have been asked to create a programme projeting 20% longer duration than original duration in Ms-project. I have to show finish date of all activities with longer duration in a new column. What would be the formula or any way to do this? Your help is much appriciated.

Thanks 

Aarya

    Hi Nagendra,

    I have created the following task custom fields with formulas:

    a) Duration1 = [Duration] * 1.2 ; (decimal dot or comma depending of MS Windows regional settings)

    b) Finish1 = ProjDateAdd([Start];[Duration1];"Standard") ; presuming your project calandar is "Standard"

    I do not know how to reschedule le project's tasks with the Finish1 dates instead of the regular Finish dates; a VBA script would certainly be used to do so.
