Unable to import the project into Project for the Web because the project duration exceeds 3650 days
I have an MPP file like the image below. There is a summary task with a duration of 1583 days, while the duration limit of MS Project for the Web is 3650 days. However, when I import this project into MS Project for the Web, it indicates that it's not accepted due to the project duration exceeding 3650 days. Could you please help me identify where the issue might be or if there is a way to resolve this?
Thanks~

Regarding the calendar you have set as the Project calendar in the Project Information dialog: Does this calendar specify an 8-hour working day or a 24-hour working day? If it is the latter, Project for the Web does not recognize calendars in an MPP file, including company holidays marked as nonworking time. Project for the Web does not recognize dependencies that have Lag time or Lead time, nor does it recognize constraints and deadline dates. So, there is something in your MPP file that is ignored by Project for the Web, causing the Duration to expand to a value greater than 3650 days. Hope this helps.- Thanks you for your advice, that helped alot.
- Review the P4W project boundaries in the link below and see if your project exceeds any of those limits? If it does, correct those issues and try the import again.
