Outline tasks. Link tasks. Change your view. Print your project. Learn more. Type a name in the first empty Task Name field at the bottom of the task list, and press Enter. Want more? If adding tasks one at a time starts to take too long, you can also:. Add multiple tasks at once. Cut and paste a list from another program. Import a tasks list from a SharePoint site.

Indent and outdent tasks to show hierarchy — that is, to turn your task list into an outline of your project. An indented task becomes a subtask of the task above it, which becomes a summary task. The task becomes a subtask. Click Outdent Task to move the task back to the level of the task above it. Use subtasks and summary tasks to show phases, easily navigate through a large project, and more. You can link any two tasks in a project to show their relationship also called a task dependency.

Dependencies drive the project schedule — once you link the tasks, every change you make to one affects the other, which affects the next one, and so on. Hold down Ctrl and click the two tasks you want to link in the Task Name column.

Project supports four kinds of task links to show different relationships. Want to change the link type or remove the link completely? You can change any view to meet your specific needs. In the Task Views group or Resource Views group, click the view that you want to use. Need some help choosing the right view of your project? Printing a view or report in Project is similar to printing in other Office programs:. Getting only the specific project information you want to share with your stakeholders into your printout can involve some prep work before you hit the print button:.

Prepare a view for printing. Prepare a report for printing. How are schedules calculated? If you have several project files open use the drop down arrows in the boxes to correctly identify the files.

MPT file if a file from another source is being used copy the other way for your objects to be used in other files.

When the transfer of objects is complete click the cross in the top right hand corner of the dialog to close the organiser. Creating any new project now will include the objects you have transferred ready for immediate use. It is also possible to define in what way these dependencies exist. For example, if you have two tasks, \”Dig foundation\” and \”Pour concrete,\” the \”Pour concrete\” task cannot begin until the \”Dig foundation\” task is complete.

The dependent task can begin any time after the task that it depends on begins. The SS link type does not require that both tasks begin simultaneously. For example, if you have two tasks, \”Pour concrete\” and \”Level concrete,\” the \”Level concrete\” task cannot begin until the \”Pour concrete\” task begins.

The dependent task can be completed any time after the task that it depends on is completed. The FF link type does not require that both tasks be completed simultaneously. For example, if you have two tasks, \”Add wiring\” and \”Inspect electrical,\” the \”Inspect electrical\” task cannot be completed until the \”Add wiring\” task is completed. The dependent task can be completed any time after the task that it depends on begins.

The SF link type does not require that the dependent task be completed concurrent with the beginning of the task on which it depends. For example, the roof trusses for your construction project are built offsite. Two of the tasks in your project are \”Truss delivery\” and \”Assemble roof. The FS link is by default not shown in the predecessors column but add one of the other link type contractions after the predecessor number and press enter the link will change and the result shown in the Gantt chart.

The picture below shows a start to start relationship. Click OK when you have made the necessary adjustments More Links, Lead And Lag Times From the previous examples you have seen in the task information dialog, predecessors tab and in the task dependency dialog a box called lag this is a box allows you to fine tune these Link relationships by specifying Lag or Lead times as required. You enter the lead time as a negative value Lag A Lag time is a delay between two tasks that are linked by a dependency.

For example, if there must be a two-day delay between the finish of one task and the start of another, you can establish a finish-to-start dependency and specify two days of lag time for the successor task. You enter the lag time as a positive value. Applying lead and lag time in the dialog boxes should now be easy but the method of entering it in the predecessors column may not be so obvious although it is the most efficient way of working with your links You may return to the standard Gantt view at any time by using the VIEW button and selecting a different view.

From this form the data relating to the specific task can be changed which includes progress information. Where progress data is being entered, Actual should be selected.

Actual Start Date and time for the Task. Actual Completion date and time for the Task, if completed. This box can set up a specific constraint on the start or end date for the task. There are a fixed number of choices which are shown in a list for selection. The priority relates to which tasks can be delayed. If nothing is entered, ID number is shown. This will be looked at in more depth later. It also includes boxes for Rollup and Hide Gantt Bar. Predecessors Shows any predecessors set and allows you to add others, change the relationship and introduce Lag or Lead time.

Resources You can add or modify resources plus change the task from being resource driven to fixed duration. Notes This allows you to add a note. This could be a fuller description of the task, allowing you to use a cryptic title. Custom Fields This allows you to add custom fields to the task. We have already seen the use of the general and predecessors tabs in detail.

In this section we will have a look at the advanced tab. Flexible Constraints Are constraints that are flexible and does not tie a task to a single date. The default for most projects would be ASAP. Work with task dependencies to make a task occur as soon or as late as the task dependency will allow. For example, a task with an As Soon As Possible ASAP constraint and a finish-to-start dependency will be scheduled as soon as the predecessor task finishes.

By default, all tasks in a project that is scheduled from the start date have the ASAP constraint applied. If you change a task scheduling mode from manually scheduled to automatically scheduled, the task constraint will be set to As Late as Possible ALAP.

Semi Flexible Constraints Constraints with moderate scheduling flexibility will restrict a task from starting or finishing before or after a date you choose. For example, a task with a Start No Earlier Than SNET constraint for June 15 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task can begin June 15 if its predecessor is finished by June 15 or later if its predecessor finishes after June 15 , but it can\’t be scheduled before June With a SNET constraint applied, the successor task cannot begin before the constraint date, even if as shown here the predecessor task is completed before the constraint date.

Inflexible Constraints Inflexible constraints are constraints that are inflexible because it ties a task to a date. They override any task dependencies by default and restrict a task to a date you choose. For example, a task with a Must Start On MSO constraint for September 30 and a finish-to-start dependency to another task will always be scheduled for September 30 no matter whether its predecessor finishes early or late.

If a task that is constrained to a date has a predecessor that finishes too late for the successor to begin on the date specified in the constraint, negative slack can occur.

If the deadline date passes and the task is not completed, Project will display a task indicator next to the task in the table. The deadline can also be displayed on the Gantt. The Indicators field is located to the right of the ID field and appears in a number of tables.

Deadlines don\’t usually affect task scheduling. They are used to indicate a target date you don\’t want to miss, without requiring you to set a task constraint that could affect scheduling if predecessor tasks change. A task with a deadline is scheduled just like any other task, but when a task finishes after its deadline, Project displays a task indicator notifying you that the task has missed its deadline.

Deadline dates can affect the total slack on tasks. If you enter a deadline date before the end of the task\’s total slack, total slack will be recalculated by using the deadline date rather than the task\’s late finish date.

The task becomes critical if the total slack reaches zero. You can set deadlines for summary tasks as well as individual tasks. If the summary task\’s deadline conflicts with any of the subtasks, the deadline indicator signifies a missed deadline among the subtasks.

The task is scheduled to finish on the deadline date, though the task could still finish after its deadline if its predecessors slipped. Click the Advanced tab. This is called inactivating the task.

The task remains in the project plan, but does not affect resource availability, the project schedule, or how other tasks are scheduled. Why would you want to inactivate a task? For one thing, it can help you model the effects of schedule or resource constraints on the project without deleting tasks permanently. Also, inactive tasks remain in the project plan, providing a record of cancelled tasks and enabling you to reactivate them if circumstances change.

Instead, mark the tasks as completed. In the table portion of the view, select the task or tasks you want to inactivate. The inactive task stays in the task list, but the text is dimmed and has a line through it. This method will work for any view containing a Gantt chart and a task list.

Tick the checkbox if you prefer not to see this warning in the future. For example, a two-day task that cannot have contiguous work might be split so that the first day of work is scheduled for Monday, and the second day is scheduled for Thursday.

As you move the mouse cursor over the task on the Gantt the mouse cursor will have changed click on the task where you wish to split it and drag the cursor to the right to move the second part of the split task into the future. Drag the mouse cursor to the right until you connect to the second part of the task and let go of the mouse The task will join and have the same duration as the original task.

What most project workers do not realise that could save themselves a lot of problems is the fact that these views can be treated as any other object and saved you could have several views of the Gantt chart for instance each showing your project with different aspects ready to be used and printed at the touch of a button The views, like tables can also be transferred to other projects and used in those to save time recreating them.

Split Views The first thing to look at with views is the split view which allows you to see related information in the bottom half of the main window while the normal project data is shown at the top the easiest way to use this is from the view ribbon. Views consist of more than just formatting and table columns they contain filters, sorting, groupings and split views if applied.

In this section you will be shown how to create your own new view while subsequent sections show you how to further manipulate that view. Save An Edited View Rarely are the views perfect for what you want and many times we need to edit the component parts of a view to get exactly what we want.

You are advised that any time you wish to edit a view say the Gantt chart view you may at some time wish to revert to its default appearance so although this section is about editing an existing view create a new view first and edit that and the original views will be left untouched for future use. All of the formatting choices shown so far are considered editing a view, bar styles, filters, groups, tables, text styles, resizing etc. When you have applied all these things to a Gantt for instance you may wish to keep that just as it is and revert at times to the original Gantt chart.

Click on COPY Click OK to create the new view. Now edit the view formatting in the ways you want. Save the changes to the project. Transfer A View Transferring a view is much the same as transferring a table, filter, group, macro etc. To have those editions reflect in the view within the global.
