Configuring General Scheduling Options

    • Click the "" Projects menu and choose one of the most-recently used projects or group of projects.
    • Click the "" Projects menu and choose Open Projects to select a project or group of projects by portfolio type, EPS node, or project code.
  2. On the Projects navigation bar, click "" Activities.
  3. On the Activities page, click the Actions menu and select Run "" "" Scheduler... (F9).
  4. In the Schedule Project dialog box, click Options.
  5. In the Scheduling Options dialog box, click the General tab.
  6. On the General tab:
    1. Select or clear the options.
    2. If your selections enable a field or list, enter a value or select an option from the list.
    3. Click Save.

Tips

  • When multiple projects are open, the scheduling options that display by default are the options defined for the first project listed.
  • These options are applied to all open projects; close or open projects to control which projects are configured.
  • Activities whose float does not exceed the value you specify in the Total Float less than or equal to field are considered critical.
