Slip By Page of the Slip Wizard

Use this page to specify how you want to slip the selected project or control account.

You can either slip the project or control account to a specific date or slip the selection by a number of days.

Date

Field Description
Enter New Start Date Click the drop-down list in this field to display a calendar from which you can select a date. Cobra uses this date to calculate the number of days to slip the project or control account. Cobra calculates the difference between the earliest scheduled start date of the selected control accounts and the date entered. Cobra uses the derived duration in days to determine the new scheduled start and finish dates for each control account.

If you select a new start date, Cobra adjusts all date sets, including Schedule, Estimate, Early, and Late dates.

Days

Field Description
Days to Slip By Use this option to slip the selected project or control account by a specific number of days. Enter a positive or negative number in this field. Cobra uses this number to determine the new scheduled start and finish dates for each control account.
