Working with Duration Types
Duration type options
Duration type determines whether the schedule, resource availability, or cost is most inflexible when calculations are performed to reflect activity progress. Duration type affects update calculations only when resources are assigned to an activity.
Choose a duration type based on which factor is the most important, or least flexible, in planning your project.
- If schedule is most important, choose Fixed Duration and Units/Time or Fixed Duration and Units.
- If resource availability is most important, choose Fixed Units/Time.
- If total work effort or fixed costs are most important, choose Fixed Units.
