Schedule Projects

When you finish creating a project plan and dependency relationships, you are ready to schedule tasks and the resources that work on tasks. If your project is large, scheduling can be a complex process that balances task relationships, resource availability, and task duration.

Because scheduling is an iterative process, it usually takes several steps to balance resources working on a project. This means that you may need to make several adjustments to your project plans. Adjustments can include changing resource availability, adjusting dependency links, and adding tasks.

To ease the burden of scheduling projects, Open Workbench uses an automated scheduling process called Autoschedule.
