Having problems with resource allocation

[theonehunter]

Need some help with resource allocation. I am trying to add resources to an
already existing project, but, everytime I add the reources, percentages pop
up and skew my hours... what am I doing wrong??

If I understand you correctly, you have a task that is (say) 2 days in
duration. If you then add a resource and specify 50%, the duration of the
task changes to 4 days.

If this is you issue, then double click on the task, go to the advanced tab
and change the task type to "fixed duration".

Alternatively, change the default in MS Project.... Tools / Options /
Schedule / Default task type = fixed duration.
