Assigning multiple people to a task

[Jeremy]

I am creating tasks that require a varying number of people. eg One task
might need two electricians where as another task may need five.

How do I specify how many electricians I will assign to a task?

Hi Jeremy,

That number is called assignment units.
When you assign people using the Assign Resources window, you have a column
"Units"
When you assign people using the task information, Resources pad, you have a
column called "Units"
Are you using still an other way of assigning resources?

adding to Jan's comments, so in the units column 100% means 1 electrician,
so if you want 5 type 500% (unless you've changed your assignment units to
decimals - then type 5).

Cheers
