Clarification needed regarding Resource availability units under resources main page in project libre

1 comment(s)

Hi,

I have a simple question:(May be my understanding is wrong)

1)I have reource R1 assigned to Task 1

2)Suppose task T1 effort is 2 days

3)In the resource availability tab under resources menu (I did not double click task and assign-i DIRECTLY went to resource availability tab and mentioned max units as 50%)

4)Now in Task side assign this resource-I expected that the number of dates move to 4 days-technically 50% each day.

5)But looks it does not change.It still shows 2 days.

6)Am I doing something wrong here?

7)Same thing works fine if I assign resource in task table double click and in the resources tab mention 50%.

8)What is the purpose of max units in Resources menu when I click resources icon?How does this work?
