In session 6 of this series, we will focus on converting a draft schedule to optimal schedule by using the features of Project 2010. After entering the schedule data, we have a draft schedule. In most situations, the draft schedule will have long durations, high cost, unreasonable workloads or combination of these. We need to convert the draft schedule to optimal schedule. An optimal schedule is a version that meets the requirements brought forward by project stakeholders.
Takeaways: At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Learn how resource information affects the schedule calculation
- Understand the different scenarios for resource overallocations
- Use different reports, views with filters and groups to spot overallocations
- Learn the different techniques to level workloads
- Use the new Team Planner view and Task Inspector to resolve overallocations
- Ask Project to level workloads based on task priority and slack
