In Project 2007, I have a task with work value of 24 hours. I assign Res1 and
Res2 (100% each). Now the duration is 12 hours. So far, so good. Now, I add
one more resource Res3 (100%). Now, the behavior seems to be inconsistent.
Sometimes, the duration changes to 8 hrs. Sometimes, it changes to 16 hrs
(which is wrong). Also, when it changes to 8 hours duration (the right one),
when I reduce the resource allocation for Res3 to 50%, the duration changes
to 16 hours instead of 9.6 hours duration.
If I delete the Res3 and then add it again but this time when I add it I put
only 50%. Now it shows 9.6 hrs duration (right one). So, I think if I update
a resource allocation after it is added, it is not behaving correctly. If I
add it with the right allocation in the beginning, it behaves correctly. I am
confused.
The task type is default (fixed units with effort driven checked).
I am not sure what is going on? User error , bug in the tool???
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
