Can I display a cumulative timescale in MS Project?

[André AC]

When I choose a monthly timescale in MS Project, the timescale shows the
recurring values from 1 to 12. I don't want to tie the timescale to any one
year or any one point in time. I wish to display a monthly timescale for a 60
month project from 1 to 60. Can I do this in MS Project?

In the time scale, change the label to 1,2,3,4 from start

Hello Andre,

Check the options for labels in the Timescale dialog. There are
several options such as "Month 1...Month 2 (from start)" or "M1...M2
from Start" that will show each month of the project numbered and
continue to the end.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi André AC

Go to Format > Timescale, then from [Units] dropdown list select “Monthsâ€
and from [Label] dropdown list select Month 1,2,3,..,

Just remind you to select the right number of Timescale Tiers then adjust
[Units] and [Label] accordingly.
