Summary tasks adding work

[Scott A]

I have a project where the summary tasks are adding 0.5 days to the Work of
the detail tasks. I have removed resources and changed duration to 0 - the
summary task still shows 0.5 days of work.

Any idea on how to fix?

Hi,

Eliminate all resources from the summary task itself.

No resources existed on summary task. What I just did was to outdent detail
tasks - that made Work editable on old summary - changed work to zero and
then indented detail again. Now summary task reflects the proper work.

Thanks for reply.
