Certain Weekend Work & Working Time in MS Project
I am building a project plan for a system cutover. For certain tasks, I need them to start on a weekend day but when I try to add this constraint or make that day a working day, it does not let me.
What is the best way to ‘force’ a task to be on a certain weekend date? And why might it be preventing me? I’ve even tried setting that day as an exception in the standard calendar.
And then is there a way to override the allotted working time on certain tasks – i.e., allow the resource assigned to work more than the standard 8 hours on a few tasks, but not all?
