Project Summary Task

[dee]

Just wondering what the difference is between showing the Project Summary
Task as opposed to inserting a regular task that is the summary of all tasks.


Which is better? I am thinking perhaps Project Summary as it will appear in
reports and doesn't require any linking?

Thanks so much for any input!

Hello Dee,

There is no real difference between these two kind of summary task. The
Project Summary just saves a WBS level.

Hi Dee,

You shouldn't be linking summary tasks

Hi Mike,

I think I worded my question incorrectly. Don't worry, I have learned 100%
that I shouldn't link summary tasks. I promise!

Thanks so much for all of your help.
