Message: [QUOTE="davegb, post: 202446"] There are 2 fields at issue here, Duration and Work. Duration is how long in calendar time it takes to get the work done. The Work field is the time it really takes to do the work, which can be considerably less. If you have more than 8 hrs of work assigned to the task and only one resource unit, the task can't be done in 1 day. The relationship is expressed in the formula: Work = Units x Duration if Duration and Work are in the same units. If Duration is in days and Work is in hours, then you need to add a conversion factor of 8 (assuming default settings in Project). Take a look at your task again and you'll probably see some conflict with this formula which is causing your problem. If not, repost here with more details so one of us can help you further. Hope this helps in your world. [/QUOTE]
