171 Assigning a cost to a project

I am a new user and trying to figure out how to assign costs to specific tasks.  Do I do it through File/Information?  I cannot write into any of the fields that come up (everything is $0.00).

172 Request: Some options

I would like to request a feature that my Project users are clammering for.

 

1. I would like to request that the tasks be able to populate into the Gantt chart field (like resources do now) without having to have to retype the tasks into the resources fields

 

2. Also a user defined print date range. right now, it seems like a print is the entire schedule. I have some construction PMs that want to print the next two weeks, or next month. PLEASE!!!!

174 How to filter all current tasks?
Hello!
Is it possible to create a custom filter?
I need to filter out all of the current urgent tasks. They must satisfy following requirements:
 
  1. Percent Complete <100%
  2. Start date <= today's date

How can I do this? Thank you!

175 Resources usage and assignements

Dear All, 

I am new on Project Libre. I have some problems in understanding how to assign resources. Should be the assignement be referred to the completion of a task or to the time available on the project? I'll make an example: I want to assign 3 resources on task A (which is actually a meeting). All 3 resources are full time and they will participate to the meeting. How am I suposed to assign the percetages? 

Thanks a lot!

176 Resource constraint and calendar

Hi all,

This sw looks great, but coming from MS Project I'm having some issues in finding the same functions.

1) Resources don't seem to be pipelined. Ie if I assign a resource to 2 tasks, these tasks can appear in parallel, even if I set the resource max to 100%.#

2) Sometimes the resource calendar does not work. eg in the standard calendar I set christmas as non working day and as working day in a "supplier" calendar. Still the "supplier" tasks skip the xmas day.

Any ideas anyone?

 

Thanks

177 Reports

Project Libre is great, but lacks documentation.

Main use of the program is intuitive, but when you start to work with costs and reports troubles appear.

How do you do?

What are the meaning of fields?

I try to guess and loose hours of time. I give up till next day and spend a couple of hours and so on.

Well, it is community software!  I am working out some documentation that I will provide to the community as soon as I can solve some problems.

Problem 1: How do I print or view a report saved .jrprint?

178 Zero hours task does not appear as milestone

I have several tasks in a Gantt Chart with zero hours allocated.  Most of them appear as milestones.  One doesn't.

Are there any other factors I should look at other than zero hours?

180 Can I change the report template?

Is it possible to customize the "report" form? For example, add headers and footers.
