PROJECTLIBRE LINK TASKS HOW TO
Try Smartsheet for FreeĪt the first part of the tutorial we described how to create your first ProjectLibre project and add your first tasks.
#Projectlibre one month how to#Īt this part of the tutorial, we are going to see how to add subtasks and how ProjectLibre handles resources. ProjectLibre tutorial Part 4: Project Baseline, Calendar.ProjectLibre tutorial Part 3: Assigning resources, calculating costs.ProjectLibre tutorial Part 2: Task Breakdown, Resources.ProjectLibre tutorial Part 1: Creating your first project. Add a task with a duration of 10 days as at the image below.Īfter adding the task lets breakdown this task to other tasks. Add another task called ‘Child task 1’ with a duration of 5 days and another task called ‘Child task 2’ with a duration of 7 days.
We now have three tasks independent from one another. As you have noticed, the first one is red. This is because it is the most critical one. Meaning that the project duration is dependent on that. View total project costs Click on ‘View’ on the top menu and then ‘Reports’. You can know see how much each task costs. Users can create links, set duration and assign resources. In ProjectLibre you also have the following options View cost per Task Click on ‘Task’ on the top menu and then ‘Task Usage’ on the left and then right click on the columns to add ‘Cost’ column as we did before. Anyway, let’s connect ‘Child task 1’ and ‘Child task 2’ with ‘Master task’. including an indented task list or work-breakdown structure (WBS). If you right click on ‘Child task 1’ you will see some options. You can understand what New, Delete, Cut, Copy and Paste do. We are going to use the ‘Indent’ option for now. Master task duration has automatically changed.Ĭongratulations on making it possible to breakdown ‘Master task’!.Both child tasks are ‘enclosed’ to Master task.So, right click on ‘Child task 1’ and ‘Indent’. Let’s make things a little bit more complicated now. Below ‘Child task 2’ add ‘Child for child 2’ and ‘Child for child 2b’.
Add a duration of 2 days for the first, and 8 days for the second. As work is done on any task, it doesn’t matter which, track the time spent in each task’s Actual Work. Also, link the two tasks as we have shown at the previous ProjectLibre tutorial part (making the ‘Child for child 2’ completion a prerequisite for ‘Child for child 2b’. When the resource starts a task then mark the start date on the MS-Project task to match and begin tracking Actual Work from that date, for each task worked (whether they were planned to be worked on at that time or not). Then select both tasks (hold Ctrl key pressed and click on number 4 and 5) and then click ‘Indent’. The result should look like the following picture:Īlso, instead of using the mouse to Link and Unlink tasks and right click in order to indent you can use the following buttons located on the top toolbar. Click on Resources at the top menu and you should see the following image: Since you got a pretty good idea about how you can handle tasks, break them down and connect them, we can now move on to the resources section of a project.
