Multiple Resource Pools

[Cheryl]

I am using MS Proj. 2002 Standard. I have created
resource pools for all sections in our development
facility. I have a master schedule comprised of about 50
sub projects. My question is can I incorporate more than
one resource pool per project? Such as:

Res_Pool_A
Res_Pool_B
Res_Pool_C
Res_Pool_D
Res_Pool_E

Project 1
Project 2
Project 3
Project 4
Project 5


Can Project 1 use resources from Res_Pool_A, Res_Pool_B,
and Res_Pool_E?

All Suggestions welcome.
Cheers!
Cheryl

Hello Cheryl,

Sorry, the answer is no : a project file can't use more than one resource
pool.

I would put all the resources into one Resource Pool. You can use Resource Groups to identify the different departments

Hope this is helpful
