Hello,

In this case, I see you can use the type of Fixed Duration task. The first step is to set this setting the task for that double-clicking the task, or select the desired task and go to Info. On the Advanced tab, change the configuration type to Fixed Duration. Thus we set the task duration. Now you must go to the Tasks tab and choose the Task Usage view. Select the desired task and the bid side frame 4 hours per workday.

To return to the default view, just click on the Gantt chart.

Hope this helps.
