logic for level of effort

Note that a LOE activity is like, but not the same as a Hammock.If you want it to behave like a hammock, ensure that you only have one predecessor and one successor, else it’ll pickup the latest ES date and the earliest EF date.

-------------------
The P5 manual says:

1. A Hammock activity expands to “umbrella” the activities encompassed within it. A LOE activity acts like a “filler” activity – it compresses to fit between activities.

2. Hammocks are not scheduled using their own calendar. A LOE activity uses its assigned calendar during scheduling.

3. A Hammock activity’s duration is calculated as the earliest early start of its predecessors to the latest early finish of its successor activities. A LOE activity’s duration is calculated from the latest early start of its predecessors to the earliest late finish of its successors.
