Hello everybody,

I am searching an answer for showing ordinal dates instead of ceartain dates but I couldn' t find a specific way. My problem is the project start date is not certain and I want to show the dates as ordinal dates, like to day 1, 2 etc instead of 25 dec, etc. 

At columns part I want to show ordinal date instead of BL project start - end.

I will appreciate if someone can help me,

Thanks & regards,

Ufuk

    Ufuk,Follow the steps

    Ufuk,

    Follow the steps below.

    • Create 3 UDFs as shown in screenshot below

    • Create a Global Change using the the 3 UDFs created above. Remember to replace 19-Jul-99 with your project start date and apply the Global Change

    • Add 2 columns to your schedule for Start Day & Finish Day using the UDFs user_integer_1 & user_integer_2

    • Voila, your ordinal dates should now be visible on your schedule
