Why would P3 report FLOAT as "FIN"? Unfortunately I do not have access to the electronic file but believe that this is somehow related to imposed constraints. Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this.

    Hi,

    What do you mean by ’FIN’?

    P3 can calculate Total float in 3 different ways:
    1)Most critical
    2)Start Float
    3)Finish float (by default)

    Tools-Schedule-options

    Regards

    The bar chart view that I am looking at includes a column labeled "FLT". This FLT column contains either numeric or the letters "FIN". The occurrence of "FIN" corresponds to either a constrained ES or EF - some of which are actuals and some of which are not.

    Thx - CL

    Chuck,
    "Fin" means "End" in French; does it help?

    Chuck,

    in P3 the total float is always numeric. This columun you look at it contains ’Custom data’ values, i.e. written by the user and NOT calculated by P3.
    So ask who submitted the program to list his used custom data items with their related description.

    Regards
