Results of Resource Scheduling Calculations

When you perform resource scheduling in Open Plan, data is calculated.

The following data is calculated:

  • Scheduled dates: A set of activity start and finish dates as follows:
  • Scheduled start: The proposed date on which an activity should start based upon both project logic and resource constraints. A scheduled start date for an activity can never be earlier than its early start date calculated by time analysis.
  • Scheduled finish: The proposed date on which an activity should finish based on both project logic and resource constraints. A scheduled finish date for an activity must be the same or later than its early finish date calculated by time analysis.
  • Earliest feasible date: The earliest date on which the activity could be scheduled to start based on the scheduled dates of all its predecessors but in the absence of any resource constraints on the activity itself.
  • Scheduled duration: The computed duration of the activity. The scheduled duration of an activity can never be shorter than its original duration. A scheduled duration can, however, be longer than the original duration in cases where the activity was split, stretched, or reprofiled during resource scheduling.
Attention: For information about activity splitting, stretching, and reprofiling, see Resource Scheduling Attributes for Activities.
