Negative Float

Berto_DA

Can anyone tell me what would have to change in the plan below for me to end up with a negative float?

It seems that if I add any duration to Activities B through L (which I would expect would create a negative float), the end date for the final task (Activity M) simply gets pushed out to compensate. No Negative Float results.

Appreciate the help.

You would be able to use Baselines with GANTT view to show for the days that you are over / under in order to see the total variance (negative float) for the project.

Additionally, you would be able to create a new column for float, and tract that using the totalfloat function
