You can modify the resource calendar to accommodate flex-time, vacation time, training time, etc.Īlso remember, Resource Calendar can only be applied to work resources and not to material and cost resources.īy default when we create the resources in a plan, the resource calendar matches the Standard base calendar. Just like you can change a Standard Base Calendar, you can change the work and non-working time for each resource. You can also verify the changed color indicated in the calendar within the dialog box as below. This date is now scheduled as a non-working day for the project. In the Start field enter 11/22/15, and then enter the same date in the Finish field. Under Exceptions Tab click on the Name Field, enter event as “Office Anniversary”. Here is an example to create a non-working day, which could be because of a holiday or office celebrations or events other than the standard office work effort.Ĭlick Project tab → Properties Group → Change Working Time.Ĭhange Working Time dialog box appears. You can also allot unique working hours for a particular resource as well. Step 3: Adding Exceptions to CalendarĮxceptions are used to modify a Project calendar to have a non-standard workday or a non-working day. Click “Cancel” or “OK” to close the dialog box. Select a Standard Calendar as your project Calendar. Standard − Regular working hours, Monday to Friday between 8 AM to 5 PM, with one hour breaks. Night Shift − Covers 11 PM to 8 AM, night shifts covering all nights from Monday to Friday, with one hour breaks. A list appears containing three base calendars.Ģ4 Hour − A calendar with no non-working time. Step 2: Set Up CalendarĬlick the arrow on the Current Date dropdown box. In the start date box, type 11/5/15, or click the down arrow to display the calendar, select Novem(or any date of your choice).Ĭlick OK to accept the start date. Step 1: Start DateĬlick Project tab → Properties Group → Project Information.Ī dialog box appears. Let us change the project start date and add some more information. Project sets the plan’s start date to current date, a thin green vertical line in the chart portion of the Gantt Chart View indicates this current date. In the list of available templates, click Blank Project. MS Project 2013 will display a list of options. Windows 10 − Click on Start menu → All apps → Microsoft Office → Project 2013. Windows 8 − On the Start screen, tap or click Project 2013. Windows 7 − Click on Start menu, point to All Programs, click Microsoft Office, and then click Project 2013. It is always a good practice to use a start date even if you know the deadline for the project. Because once you enter one of the two, and other project tasks, constraints and dependencies, MS Project will calculate the other date. When working with MS Project you either specify a start date or a finish date.
