Hello all PP members;

I have a problem when creating ordinal dates in P3, i hope anyone of
you can assist:

[Question] Let say the project start on 15 Jan 2006, so, by right the
ordinal date for the project is:
15 Jan 2006 - 15 Feb 2006: Month 1
15 Feb 2006 - 15 Mar 2006: Month 2
15 Mar 2006 - 15 Apr 2006: Month 3
15 Apr 2006 - 15 May 2006: Month 4

But P3 show me the following, which is incorrect:
1 Jan 2006 - 31 Jan 2006: Month 1
1 Feb 2006 - 28 Feb 2006: Month 2
1 Mar 2006 - 31 Mar 2006: Month 3
1 Apr 2006 - 30 Apr 2006: Month 4

Any idea?

Kind regards

    Is this the answer??

    "This is the way the system is designed. In p3 if the unit is month it does not recognize any unit below so January 06 is one month and it does not recognize 15th or 30th .It is more evident if you plan your project with month as planning unit. The best option is use week in this case (under ordinal dates unit) if you want to be more accurate."

    Regards.
