I have a schedule, with 1700 WBS Codes.
Within each WBS Code I have 5-20 activities.
I would like the total float to be driven from a certain activity within each WBS Code.
So basically every WBS acts as it's own entity.
Right now, all Total Float is driven from the Latest Finish Date of the entire schedule.

Is this possible?
If yes, please give me a hint :)

    What I need to do is set my last activity in each WBS to Mandatory Finish.

    In the Tools, Schedule,

    In the Tools, Schedule, Options, select "Make open ended activities critical" and all activities without successors will calculate their own critical path.
