We use MS-PRoject 2003 Standard with a shared resource calendar.
Normally we simply mark all time off (including training) as non working time.
We now have a situation where we want to include the effort spent on project
specific training in the plan with appropriate milestone.
My understanding of project is that:
1) If a resource is assigned to a task and that resource has non-working
time in their calendar, then the task is delayed until the resource is
available. Unfortunately we then cannot include the training effort in the
baseline.
2) If we simply schedule the individual to a training task (and leave their
calendar as working time) there is a possibility of a conflict with another
project and the resource usage will show as an overallocation. This means
that the project manager have to sort out the conflict for them selves. In
this case the effort gets included in the baseline.
Is there a way to committ a resource to a task without making them available
to another project?
