Issues with task priority and ressource
Hello, I have an issue in MS Project while scheduling my project based on my resources and task priorities. I have 2 projects: Lot 1 (priority 700) and Lot 2 (priority 600 hence less prioritized)....

SPA10,
Sorry, it's a little difficult to follow your screen shot since it is the French version and I unfortunately am limited to English. However, I do notice a few things with your plan.
- Most of the tasks have a constraint yet they still have a predecessor. Constraints will severally limit Project's ability to dynamically schedule a plan and also adversely affects the resource leveling algorithm
- You say "D-Q" is assigned late in its task span but without seeing the constraint date it is impossible to say when the 4 hour assignment is scheduled. For example, maybe "D-Q" is assigned the 4 hours on the first day of Lot 1 task 11.
- As far as "D-Q"s assignments in Lot 2, it looks normal. The resource is assigned to tasks 26 & 27. Because you leveled, the assignment on task 27 was shifted to alleviate overallocation.
- You say you updated the project from July 16. What exactly does that mean?
So, without more definitive information, I can't provide further insight.
