For example, wood and carpenters would both be resources needed to build a house. Task Something that must be achieved for your project to be successful. For example, wood must be used to build a house. Constraint Constraints restrict the start and finish date of tasks. How long the task will take to complete. Units Labor needed to complete the task. If a resource is needed to complete the task, how much will be required. Title Bar (1) This tells you what program you re working in (Microsoft ) and what project (1). By default, Microsoft 2007 names unsaved projects 1, 2, and so on. Effort-driven Material driven These types of tasks will be completed by people. These types of tasks will be completed by resources. Menu Bar (2) Type a Question (3) Click any of these commands to see a list of possible options, then, click any of the options to perform that action. If you have a question, type it here!

You can navigate through task panes almost like pages in a browser. This is where you will enter your project s task information. In this image, you can see the task entry panel on the right and the Gantt chart (with dates listed at the top like a timeline) on the left. This bar can provide information on the current status of your application. Use these bars to view different parts of your window.

Just type your task name and durations in the list. abbreviations: m Minute h Hour d Day w Week mo Month y Year Calendar Types There are three types of calendars in Microsoft : calendar Resource calendar This is the main calendar that controls when tasks are worked on and when resources work on tasks. Each resource can have its own calendar to reflect its hours of availability. Fields Captured for a Baseline Tasks Start Finish Cost Assignments Start Resources Finish Cost Cost Constraint Types Name Description Type As Soon As Possible (ASAP) As Late As Possible (ALAP) Start No Earlier Than (SNET) Finish No Earlier Than (FNET) Start No Later Than (SNLT) Finish No Later Than (FNLT) Must Start On (MSO) Must Finish On (MFO) All tasks start as soon as possible if you asked to schedule from the start date. All tasks start as late as possible if you asked to schedule from the end date. Specify the earliest possible date that this task can start. Specify the earliest possible date that this task can finish. Specify the latest possible date that this task can start. Specify the latest possible date that this task can finish. Specify the date that this task must start on. Specify the date that this task must finish on. Planning Your Inflexible Inflexible Task calendar Sometimes a task will need to have its own calendar to reflect its duration; for example, if a machine will run 24 hours a day. There are also three base calendars, which are like calendar templates. Standard ing time is set Monday through Friday, 8 am to 5 pm, with an hour (noon to 1 pm) set aside for lunch. Night Shift ing time is set Monday through Friday, 11 pm to 8 am, with an hour (3 am to 4 am) set aside for lunch. 24 hours ing time is every day and hour of the week; useful for resources (such as machines) that run constantly. Task Types Task Type Explanation If you change Fixed duration Fixed units (default task type) Fixed for these tasks will not change. This task s units will remain constant. This task s work will remain constant. recalculates Effort or material driven Units Either Units Units Either Units Effort driven Printing Your Units First, create a general outline of the project. You ll want to think about what the end result of the project will be. You ll also want to think about the general timeline, budget, and resources that you will have available. Next, create a task list. In this list you may want to specify how long each task is going to take, which tasks are going to be dependent on others, and which ones need to be broken down into sub-projects. Next, make a list of resources. Last but not least, think about your costs. You may even want to prepare a formal budget.
