I have the following project with only Summary Tasks showing. Project is
the Summary task for all the other Summaries. The Summaries, as you can
see, are linked to the Summary above them.
Each task in each summary is linked to the task before it. The 1st task in
each summary is never linked to any task. I assume this is because the
Summary record is linked to the previous summary (except the 1st one). I
can't link the Summary Task "Design" to "Project because it gets an error
message "You can't link a summary task to one of it's summary tasks".
The problem is that the Summary Task "Project"s Duration isn't being updated
when I change any of the tasks' duration in "Design" - which it should. If
you add all the durations up they don't equal 40.5.
Also, if you notice the start date of Development is 2/6/07 but the ending
date of Design is 2/13/07. The other summaries work fine.
1 Project 40.5 days 50% Thu 2/1/07 Thu 3/29/07
2 Design 8.1 days 28% Thu 2/1/07 Tue 2/13/07
10 Development 22.5 days 100% Tue 2/6/07 Thu 3/8/07 2
26 Testing 10 days 0% Fri 3/9/07 Thu 3/22/07 10
37 Deployment 4.5 days 0% Fri 3/23/07 Thu 3/29/07 26
Here are the tasks in "Design" (I took out most of the name for display
purposes). Notice that there is predecessor for task #3. This is the same
for all the Summarys but the others work fine.
3 Decide 0.9 days 100% Thu 2/1/07 Thu 2/1/07
4 Decide 0.1 days 100% Thu 2/1/07 Thu 2/1/07 3
5 Decide 1 day 100% Fri 2/2/07 Fri 2/2/07 4
6 Decide 0.1 days 0% Mon 2/5/07 Mon 2/5/07 5
7 Decide 3 days 0% Mon 2/5/07 Thu 2/8/07 6
8 Decide 2 days 0% Thu 2/8/07 Mon 2/12/07 7
9 Decide 1 day 0% Mon 2/12/07 Tue 2/13/07 8
What would cause this problem?
Thanks,
