View and Edit Task Assignments

You can view a lists of the resources assigned to each task. Tasks with no assignments do not display in the list. You can view a summary of task assignment information from two locations. You can view assignment information from:

• The Task Properties page of a task to which resources have been assigned.
• The Project: Tasks: Assignments page. Use this page to view assignment information for all of the resources assigned to project tasks.

The procedures for viewing assignments at both levels is the same; the only difference is the page you start from.

You can edit the assignment start and finish dates and ETC by selecting Edit Mode from the Actions menu on the Task Properties page. This option is not available from the Project: Tasks: Assignments page. If you edit task assignments, the task and project-level ETC is adjusted according to the changes you made.

Assignment information is displayed in a table format. Resources are listed by name. The ETC column identifies the number of hours that have been entered or calculated for each resource. If any have been recorded, you can view assignment actuals in the Actuals column.

Summary information includes the start and finish dates of the task, the Estimate To Complete (ETC) the task, and actuals, if any have been recorded. Use the summary view to compare actuals to ETC once the project is underway.
