Configure the Leveling Priority

To handle scheduling conflicts that may occur during leveling, you can configure priorities that specify the order in which activities are delayed in the schedule. Use the Leveling Priority field to assign a priority to the activities in your project. When you level your project, you can establish a sort order for the activities based upon their assigned leveling priority. The priority rankings can be sorted in ascending or descending order, and are used to guide the leveler as to which activities it should move or not move. The sort order controls which activities are moved around first in the project schedule during the leveling process.

To configure leveling priorities for project activities:

  1. Navigate to the Activities page
  2. Apply a view that displays the Leveling Priority column, or add the column to the current view.
  3. In the Leveling Priority list, select a priority value.
  4. All changes made to this page are saved automatically.
