Counting resource conflicts

[Guest]

Does anyone know how to count resource conflicts? Note that I'm not talking
about counting the number of overallocated resources - that is easy to
obtain from the Resource Sheet view (just count the number of red
resources). What I want to know is how to obtain the actual number of
resource conflicts there are in a project. For example, the following
schedule would have 1 resource conflict if there is 100% Max. Units defined
for resource R1:

----
|T0| R1
----

----
|T1| R1
----

Now what happens if I set R1 to 200% for both task T0 and T1? I've just
introduced more resource conflicts into the project now, right? So would
there be two conflicts now? Three? Does anyone know of a standard way of
counting such things?

Hello,
The best way is to display the Resource Graph : View / Resource Graph
with Peak Units or Percent Allocation :
Format / Details...

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I'm afraid I am losing you along the way.
What in your mind is a conflict?
A moment in time where a resource is overallocated?
In that case, how long does such a moment have to last before you count it?
I really do not feel exactly what you want, and even your example doesn't
enlighten me.

That is why I can't help you now I'm afraid

Greetings
