This eBook presents quick reference guides listing assignment models in order to help MS Project users with understanding MS Project’s behavior while they perform initial assignments of single or multiple resources to the tasks in various scenarios. By the help of these guides, the users can easily create resource assignments, based on their estimations, that best fit their projects’ requirements.
All the steps to develop these guides (or cheat sheets, infographics, etc.) are explained in detail and supported by the demonstrations. Therefore, the readers (i.e., MS Project users) would be able to verify all the user interface operations and the results on their desktop computers running MS Project’s desktop editions/versions. Not just the guides, but you also need to review these steps as well to understand MS Project’s behavior in
the initial assignments.
The content also includes information on how to adjust, edit and/or modify the assignments in various scenarios during both planning and implementation phases of the projects.
This eBook simply aims to enable the users to have full control over the assignment operations, and at the same time, make the process easier for them.
This eBook assumes that the readers are currently using MS Project in planning, scheduling and managing projects and already familiar with defining and assigning resources to the tasks in the desktop version/edition of the product used. The eBook
also assumes that the readers, as MS Project users, have a working knowledge of
the scheduling formula (i.e., the work formula), the task types, the
effort-driven scheduling and the hierarchy among the calendars. See
