Microsoft Project Server Training - Create a Duration Based Project Schedule

Microsoft Project is a very robust product for creating and managing project schedules. So much so that project managers often find creating work breakdown structured and task lists in the product can be somewhat complex. With Microsoft Project there are many ways to accomplish the same tasks. What matters most is that you find the way that works best for you. In this Microsoft Project Training video we walk through the steps to create a work breakdown structure that is duration-based. Duration-based schedules are typically easier to track once created because the task durations and other data points do not vary considerably as you enter tracking information after you have started executing your project schedule. Using other Task Types such as Fixed Units or Fixed Work add a bit more complexity to scheduling that is sometimes a bit overkill for new schedulers. It is therefore a good idea to get used to duration-based scheduling, then move on to more advanced Microsoft Project scheduling techniques once acclimated. In this video we'll walk through the process of creating a schedule from creating a blank project, defining the initial project attributes such as Start Date and other necessary items. We will then enter Tasks and create Task Relationships. Subsequent to this we will start assignment planning by creating resources, enter Task Estimates, and finally assigning resources. Once we have looked over our schedule and given it a final "reality check", we will baseline it and ready it for execution. We hope you enjoy this video. https://integent.com/ms-project-train... https://integent.com/microsoft-projec... https://integent.com/microsoft-projec... https://integent.com/project/microsof...
