Extension periods

[Oki]

Hi, been searching in the program for a while now, but I don't seem to be able to find a solution for my problem
I want to use flexible dates in my planning. So I want to be able to give maximum extension period and also a flexible starting date. Of course you can use the "as soon as possible constraint", but it doesn't give me any overview if it hasn't happened. I want to be able to see how much I can move my tasks without getting in trouble at the end of the project.

Anybody know how to introduce these extension periods and if it's even possible or not
Thank

Oki

Hi,

It is there!
Insert the column "Total Slack"
That is exactly that... how long you can postpone the start of a task
without jeopardizing Project finish!
