What is a best practice for linking Just-In-Time Tasks?
In MS Project, what is a best practice for linking Just-In-Time tasks, so that a task is scheduled to take place just prior to another task, without use of date constraints or overriding scheduling logic? As an example, I have a task "task prep" that I want to complete just before "important task" starts. "Important task" has other Finish-Start predecessors that determine when it starts. The only thing driving "task prep" is that it must finish just before "important task" starts. These tasks have slack in the schedule that I want to maintain, so I can't use As Late As Possible constraint without pushing both tasks to the right and using up slack. There isn't a task preventing "task prep" from starting, so if I link "task prep" as a predecessor to "important task" with Finish-Start (FS), with As Soon As Possible, then "task prep" will be scheduled to happen long before I want to perform that task. If I use Start-Finish (SF), then the start date of "Important task" drives the finish date of "Task Prep" The dates line up, but SF dependency type is generally not recommended. Also, I do not want to use date constraints, as these are generally not recommended. How can I link these tasks so that "task prep" finishes just before "important task" while adhering to accepted scheduling standards?
Automatic overwriting "Task name", after saving
Hello Community, I am asking assistance for an easy issue but so annoying: when I save a MS Project file, the row modified loses its Task Name, overwriting itself, with apprarently no reason. It is so crucial to not overwrite because I lose my work team references. Here a breakdown: I have create a MS Project file named "PROJECT MASTER PLANNER". I have imported SubProjects on the rows. I modify one or more SubProject directly on "PROJECT MASTER PLANNER". I click "Save to All" or just "Save". The SubProjects modified lose their Task Name, overwiritng automatically with "78.25_rev01". 78.25_rev01 was my first MS Project ever imported on "PROJECT MASTER PLANNER", that i do not use anymore. Below a couple of screenshot. Many thanks to whom will help me, it is blowing my mind ! AndreB. SCREENSHOT 1/2 SCREENSHOT 2/2
Can't reduce row height - tried everything!
Hi there, I have a master plan which brings together a number of subprojects. I want to display just the summary tasks of each subproject to show the phasing of our entire portfolio. Even though row height under the gridlines menu is set to 1, wrapped text is off, and there are no labels on the gantt above/below the bar (only inside), I can't seem to get rid of the white space between rows. All ideas welcome! Thanks, NaomiProject Server Enterprise Global Freeze
We are using on-premises Project Server. The Enterprise Global Template has frozen such that once I open it, MS Project freezes and I can't get to the Organizer to remove custom views (Assuming a custom view has polluted the EGT, as the only thing we do in the EGT is create or modify custom views/tables/filters). How can I access the Organizer to "un-pollute" the Enterprise Global Template? Also, I saved our custom views in an mpp file. How can I tell which view is causing the problem with the Global Template, so I can prevent this from happening in the future? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Project Remaining Duration as of Status Date
In a Project schedule, The % Complete entered during an update doesn't seem to push the task Finish Date as it should. The task has a Start date of 6/9/25, Finish date of 9/23/25, duration of 14.95 weeks. The Status date is 9/12/25, Actual start 6/9/25 (on schedule) but progress is 2% Complete, Remaining Duration is 13.45 wks. When I click Update Project and reschedule uncomplete work to start as of Status Date (9/12/25) the Finish Date remains 9/23/25. Shouldn't the Finish Date push to approx. 12/12/2025 based on the % complete and remaining duration? There are a handful of tasks in this schedule with a similar issue, so I would like to find out what causes this, so we can make the task Finish Dates update as you would expect when updating % complete and Remaining Duration on tasks as of the status date. If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. There are no date constraints on the task, and "Split In-Progress tasks" is selected in the Schedule Options. We are using a 4 day a week/10 hours a day calendar. We assign Generic Resources to tasks but this particular task is NOT resource loaded. This task is linked with both a predecessor and successor, and both the predecessor and successor are statused 100% complete. Could this be why Project isn't updating the Finish Date for this task, since its successor is complete? We are using Project Server. This project has been published with the status date of 9/12/25.
