UNIT II
Objectives
1. understand of resources
2. creating resource pool
3. assigning calendars to resource
4. Changing calendar to resources.
4th option is resource sheet.
Resource sheet.
Heading in resource sheet.
For max unit how to change decimal to percentage
After data entry:-
Note 2 –
Project start --------- 23 Nov.
____on leave(24-25 nov)_____
26 Nov --------- Project end.
Double clicking on supervisor then Resource info pop up
Putting date of available of supervisor
Also add note (reason)

Resource concepts:-
Recourse Assignment Calculations
When tasks are auto scheduled their start and end dates can be manipulated both by the task duration and
the assignment of predecessors.
Once resources are assigned to task, other variable cames into play which can affects their schedule.
Variable includes – units (no of resource required)
(work amount of work required )
duration
unit work task
How to Assign resource
From assign resources we will get a table
After assignment of labor
After assigning helpers
Choosing a proper option in b/w two option with proper purpose of worker is assigned.
After changing the task type there are change in duration, unit, work according to our needs
Type task use to change
impacts on duration
unit and work
Work will vary when fixed unit, fixed duration but when task is fixed work
In any case unit dose not change.
Duration X Assignment units = work (hours) (MSP automatically calculate it).
After removing helper
&
Duration also changers
Date – 18-09-2024
How to change rate from specific date
8-10-2024.
Schedule –
8-10-2024 – (Resource problem solving)
15-10-2024 – (Practice session for own project work.)
22-10-2024 – (Assessment-2)
5-11-2024 – (Updating earn value reporting)
12-11-2024 – (Practice session)
19-11-2024 – (Assessment -3)
Resource leveling can be done in many ways there is no right and wrong ans, which was the ans, we might
have many ans.
Methods of resource
Types of Resource Levelling: -
A) Automatic levelling.
B) Manual levelling.
Manual levelling can be done
1) Moving a task – in this moving a task which having over resource with a suitable time.
2) Increasing the max. unit -
3) Assigning a different resource - seems easy in theory not in MSP
4) Extending working days -
5) Over time (optional).
To make report that there is problem
By going to report
Going to resources
Result
Resource levelling
By pressing leveling option we get
this table
Make sure day by day
Method
1) By directly adding no of worker in resource sheet (most easy way )
2) By changing date by looking for the float/ lag available for the work.
3) By assigning a different resource like adding new worker on contract bases.

1) Baseline schedule.
2) Updating of project progress.
3) Earned value parameters.
4) Reports.
5) Preparation of Doc/PPT.

Baseline-
Once the project has been scheduled you are ready to commit it is a baseline or plan.
The baseline becomes a yardstick against which actual performance can be measured and will provide the
foundation for updating the current schedule relying on progress to date.
For this –
First go to project
Then go to project information
Then click on project information and click on statistics
Before changing any base line.
Go project click then go to table and click on variance
Now –
Go to project then click set base
There are 11 baseline to set.
After setting baseline selecting for entire project it shows:-
Now the statistic table shows after setting the baseline
Understanding tracking concepts: -
When the plan is updated, actual value will be added to the plan (actual start, actual work, actual cost, and so
on), and remaining value are calculated.
Updating process
Answer the following questions regularly:-
1) Is the task on schedule?
2) How much task is done?
3) Is a revised estimation available on the duration of the task?
4) Is a revised estimation available on the work that is required to complete the task?
If 1 box is not ticked then we hve to update both the status manually.
If 2 box is ticked then it will automatically calculate the inserted project.
If 3 box is ticked then it will automatically calculate the cost of project.
To set status date 14-09-2024
go to project information and select date
It shows now like this
To display in gantt chart bar right click go to gridline scroll down to line to change to status date
It shows like a red line in Gantt chart:-
How to track
Table is tracking

12-11-2024
1- Baseline
2- Set up status date
3- Actual status a) task b) work/recourse
4- Update –
Learn earn value thing
we have learned how to view earn value
How to make reports of whole project
Then click on new repot
And open blank report and click chart and line graph it will show this
