One of my Project Managers just asked me a question I couldn't answer.

:-o

You can imagine my acute embarassment and changrin. The very thought of being less knowledgable than a PM makes me shudder, so any help would be much appreciated.

Why does MS Project have the option of displaying thirds of months on the timeline? You can display Beginning/Middle/End (BME) of a calendar month.

Who reports in this manner? Why would you need to see this?

Has anybody heard of this before?

    Hi Andrew,

    as a project management consultant here in France, I have been told once by customers that "in some instances" IT people could display their schedules by "third of month"
