Relation between task duration and project calendar work hours
- If you have Project Plan 1,3 or 5 licenses then Project for the web is definitely NOT out of scope for support. You should be able to open a new case via the Microsoft 365 Admin center (or your admin should). If you tried this before - ping me the case number to brian.smith@microsoft.com and I will find out why you were told this. Best regards, and apologies for the delay in responding - just back from vacation, Brian.
John - I am using Project on Web. Your screenshot and instructirons are for Project Professional.
Brian-Smith - All times are in GMT -6:00 Central - work hours are from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM Central. Screen Shot of the calendar resource attached.
Steps:
1. Created a generic resource - "Test Resource", and set working hours (see screenshot)
2. Created calendar template "Test Calendar" based on the "Test Resource"
3. Created new Project, and assigned "Test Calendar", and start date.
4. Created tasks - entered task name and duration only. (The date columns auto filled on entering duration)
5. No user assignment made.
No work hour change in November
I could not find any ways of torubleshooting what timezone or other assignments being made to the task in backend.
