I am using MS Project 2003 Professional.
I have multiple projects that I display in a Master Plan. I have als
implemented a Resource Pool Sharer file so that I have one location fo
all resource information.
The issue that I am having is that my team of developers have severa
misc. tasks that they do that do not have a specific tie to task
within the development schedule. For example, they attend a weekly tea
meeting for an hour, and they each attend various other service tea
meetings.
Also, on one specific project I have two people that are acting as th
project leads. Many of there tasks are just keeping the projec
running, having quick meetings to get the other developers on task, an
providing direction for the project.
So, I have two questions:
1. What is the best practice for scheduling the misc team meetings an
other tasks that are non development related? Do I just assign th
resource at 90% for example and create a separate project for the othe
tasks for the other 10%. Or do I just count the misc tasks as part o
the development time??
2. For the leads. What is the best practice for scheduling their time
Ocationally they are assigned to a specific task, such as Peer Revie
or something like that, but what do I do about the rest of the time.
Please help!!!!
Thanks
