How can I adjust for daylight savings time?

S

Shutslar

My team is working on a project plan that will be executed next April. It is a large plan with a great deal of detail that is scheduled on a 24 hour calendar. The time frame in which the plan will be executed is at the same time that daylight savings time starts. How could/should we account for the change in the times on the plan so we don't drive confusion for those actually executing it?

All suggestions are appreciated.

Best Regards,

Hi Scott,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

I'd just forget about it! It amounts to only one hour in your great deal of
detail and the PC will adjust the times so that the change is transparent.
If you are scheduling a project where one hour in the total is important, I
believe you are scheduling to a too great a level of detail. Stand back a
bit and look at the higher level of durations - how accurate are they such
that an hour on a day is significant?

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