Hi all,

Three questions:
1. What the constraint A<B,C means and how can I entering in the MSP?
2. I have 3 kinds of human resources. Lets say for example, kind A are
engineers. I have 8 of them and everyone is costing 1500 Euros/month.
Task A needs 4 engineers. How can I assign them to the task and add the
appropriate cost?
3. I have 3 machines as a resource. Each machine has a usage cost of
3000 euros per task and function cost 2400 euros per month. How can I
assign them in the appropriate tasks? And how can I distribute their
cost?

Thank you in advance

Hi,

No idea what you mean by A<B,C. Please explain

In the View Resource Sheet
Enter a Resource Engineer.
Set Max units to 800%
Set rate to the relevant Euro / hour (per month is not accurate as number of 
working hours per month changes).
Enter Machines as a Resource
Enter cost/use of Euro 3000
Enter hourly rate

For each Task, assign resources (see help for assigning Resources) and costs 
will display accurately

In a Gantt Chart select Window Split. Make sure the hours of work estimated 
is accurate as Project calculates cost on hours*rate plus cost per use.

Rod thank you for the help.

Lets say that A,B,C are tasks and the relationship of these tasks (as a 
dapendence) is A<B,C. Does it mean that B and C are predecessors of A or what?

Is it clear?

A<B means nothing to me except in an algebra context. What does it mean to 
you? If you don't know, please ask the person who old you!

I found this type of a constraint in a project's contents table. Anyway
I think this declares that task A has predecessors B and C.

Thanks Rod

I'd ask the person who put it there.
This sort of information needs to be interpreted in order to make any sort 
of modeling decision.
