Hi there,
I did not use resource levelling so much, since I could not predict the delay.
I have some tasks linked together into a branch (a feature), and I have many
branches within a tree (a products). And I have some trees like that.
A resource can be responsible for a whole branch. And one resource can take
some branches across different trees. I dont have links between branches, and
between tree. The dependencies set inside the branch only.
But within each branch there are some fixed milestones that I used to set as
dependencies, where the tasks in that branch could not start earlier than
that.
When I use levelling to resolve overallocated of the resources, I saw that
some of the tasks inside a branch suddenly push to a very far starting time
(say in year 2020!) then come back to start on 2006 for the next task which
linked to it .
For ex of a branch:
Task 1.1: Material availability : 0 day, start at day A (eg. 10/20/2006)
Task 1.2: Task AAA: 2 days, linked to Task 1.1 (asap)
Task 1.3: Task BBB: 2 days, linked to Task 1.2 (asap)
Task 1.4: Task CCC: 1 days linked to Task 1.3 (asap)
....
After levelling, for some branches,
Task 1.2 can be pushed to (11/01/2020) !
then Task 1.3 come back to 10/26/2006
I had to remove the predecessor from Task 1.2, then retype the same
predecessor back, then the date will be back to normal again.
Do you have any idea about this issue? Is this a bug ?
Thanks
