Subsequent Tasks On Single Line

L

Lucas

I am trying to get subsequent tasks (e.g., quarterly reviews) to show up on a
single line instead of taking up 4 lines. Is there anyway to do this in
Project?

Lucas --

Yes. Click Insert - Recurring Task. Enter "Quarterly Review" as the name
of the task and set the Duration. Select the Monthly recurrence pattern,
select either a date every quarter or a day of the week, and then set it to
recur every three months. Enter the Start date and specify either the
number of occurrences or the End by date. Click the OK button and you are
in business. Hope this helps.

Lucas,
The only way you can do that in Project is to create a recurring task
(Insert/Recurring Task). Once the recurring tasks are created, collapse
to the summary line.

In addition to the recurring task already suggested, you could use a
single task and split it so that work is carried out in the right periods.
