Importing Resources

Blueglass

Hello All,
This discussion group is such a valuable asset!
Got another question, I'm trying to merge multiple resource names from
Excel into a single task, using the WBS ID as the merge key.
At the moment I can only get one resource applied per task.
How would you suggest I import data for a task that has multiple resources?
Thank you.

Hi,

In Excel or anywhere, construct the text that will exist in Resource Names
(f.i. Bill;Fred[50%]), then import the resource names column

Jan,

I am running into the same problem, but I only have data for the 'Resource
Name' and each resources total 'Work'. I do not have their allocation
percentage. Is there a way to bring this data from multiple resources into
one task?

Thanks,

K Martin
