    Hello Tom. I recently discovered your channel and I really enjoy listening and learning from your videos. I would be very interested to get your opinion on scheduling and managing resources with tasks moving through a day/night shift schedule using a pool.

    Hi Tom, if a new change request came through (that was not necessarily a task that can be linked to any previous task), what would you suggest to do to ensure critical path is accurate? Tahnk you.

      You have to be careful if you insert the change with a constraint as it might make the critical path disappear, try it (it might not impact it). You could avoid by connecting it to the most logical activity with a Start to Start or Finish to Start and lag it to the start date that makes sense (You could lag it from a completed activity then it won't move during future updating) and don't forget to connect to the successor activity (logical successor) and see if the critical path changes.

      Hi Annie, thanks again for the question

    Hi Tom. Thanks for this informative video. Is it possible to view the critical path just for a specific task instead of the whole project? For example, if you want to see which tasks affect your inspection approval milestone (item 83), is there a way to view the critical path only for that item?

    • @TomStephensontraining

      Yes, go to the view tab then click filter then click critical and all you will see is the critical tasks. Don’t forget to remove the filter when you are done reviewing

      ​ @Tom Stephenson that shows the critical tasks for the whole project's completion. My question is about having a separate critical path for a specific milestone. For example, if we divide the project into different phases how can we see the critical path just for phase 1?

    How can I show the planned vs actual on the schedule in MS Projects?

      Hi Chama, you can show on the tracking gantt by sliding to the far left right click the mouse and select tracking gantt. Then select the square icon box right click and select variance screen. Watch videos 5 and 6 on updating and recovery from one my project playlists.

    Actually in ms projects how do i filter multiple activities using task ID and then assign a resource ... trying to find alternative to find each activity and assign resource one by one which is very time consuming

      Not sure exactly what you mean but you can click holding control keycwhich activies you wan to assign the resource to while having the assign resources box open and then just assign. Works like excel with ctrl and shift keys
