Different duration for same Project.

Do you level project resources?

Is finish date different also?

Does your project include dependency lags?

Are there multiple calendars?

just by changing the project to a deflaut calendar this only applies when adding NEW activities. For all of the existing activities they are still on the original calendar assigned to them. You have to ASSIGN the existing activities to the default calendar. Add a column for calendar, filter for ALL, in the calendar column for the first activity at the top select the default claendar and then do a fill down, now re-schedule your project. 

It is ALWAYS a 2 step process adding a calendar does NOTHING until you ASSIGN  the activities to that calendar and recalcute the schedule.

Hi,

Thanks for your Post.

In my WBS, activities have three different type calenders are allocated.

So i think , if i give default Calender for all activities,then i wont get same duration.

Please correct me if i am wrong.

I have 3 type of calenders allocated for activities.

Default calender which i put is a different one from these 3 calenders.

In my master program from which i imported ,Calender settings were done as stated above.

Calendars are not associated with a wbs, calnedars are assigned to an activity and then the activity is assigned to a WBS.

you determine the durations not the calendars 

Thank you for the solutins especially to Zoltan Palffy.

glad I could help 

Hi Guys,

Let us all be thankful that we are lucky have the great Zoltan in planning project, although there are others great as he is, but his way of sharing his knowledge in both the software and schedulling is just exceptional.

Cheers!
