Can anyone tell me what happens, if you tick the box, 'Drive activity dates by default' on the Resource Tap on the Project screen when in the Enterprise View?

We are using resources.

    As follows is out of P7 Help:

    "Drive activity dates by default: Mark to allow the assignment finish dates to roll up to the activity finish dates for new resource and role assignments. Clear to allow the resource/role dates to be independent of the activity dates. The Project Management module marks this option by default." (End of quotation.)

    In other words:

    - Marked: All assignments within activity's duration

    - Unmarked: Assignments can be outside of the activity's duration --> Dangerous!

    Parameter can individually be set for each assignment.

    Regards
