Hi,
I was given an assignment and don't know how to do some things in
MP2K.
Please help (those, who can).
In short:
What are "resources with clashes" and how to resolve them in MP2K ?
(see Note "A" below)
Thank you

Assignment Details:
In general - what I was given: the Gantt char is already given (all
tasks are specified and named; start, finish dates of every job are
given); Resources with all atributes also are given, but did not
allocated to jobs.
== Note A (from the assignment text)
Important note: Aim to have at least two resources with "clashes"
(so that you have some resource clashes to report on). You should find
that when you allocate the labourers as specified above there will be
a clash to resolve. Make sure you create at least one other clash to
resolve (or to be resolved by Project).
* Resource clashes are not easy to spot - Project has a tendency to
resolve them for you by using up available slack. Look carefully each
time you add resources ... and see if any tasks "move" following your
allocation. If not sure: use "undo"/ "redo" to check.
* You must explain carefully and fully how either Project (or you)
resolved these clashes.
(NB: (goodguy) == I don't know how to do it.)
....
....
Required:
i) By carefully following the guidelines above, add resources to tasks
as you consider appropriate.
Provide evidence that resource clashes exist in your project. Where
there are resource clashes? Resolve them in any way you consider
sensible or let Project do it for you. Document carefully any changes
made either by you or by Project.
(Note: You may not simply hire extra resources nor allocate overtime
at this stage.)
ii) If this results in any changes to the project duration - please
state and explain those changes. State the final total project cost
and total duration.
iii) Currently, there are 10 Architects allocated to this project.
(GG. Yes there are Arch resource with 1000% resource)
By how much can this number be reduced without:
1. Delaying the start or finish of any task
2. Delaying the project.
Explain carefully the steps you took to be able to answer this part of
the question.
Leave the number of architects at the level found in part b) iii) 1.
for the rest of your work.
