Assigning multiple resource list to tasks within Project

Dave

Hi all,
New to the community so be gentle please! :eek:)

I am working in an environment using Project 2002 and need to be able to
assign people from 3 different groups to particular tasks within a project.

The snag is these people are within 3 different groupings and some people
can belong to more than one groups.

Then I need to be able to display the three groups as columns and show
against each task who has been assigned - this is further complicated as more
than one person can be assigned from a group.

Essentially what I am after is to be able to have 3 separate resource lists
against a task, so then i can search on a particular resource list for a
person's tasks, etc.

Hope someone can show me the light!

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

Project will allow you to assign a group (like Carpenters) or an individual.
However, you cannot assign Fred as an individual if he is already included
within the resource Carpenters. It's one or the other, sorry :(

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)

Many thanks for your response Mike, I pretty much thought that would be case
after fiddling with Project for the past few days, but glad to have the
experts opinion to prove that I was not going mad :eek:)
