Use Resources AND calculate dates?

Jeana

I'm looking for a workaround for this. I understand that with recourses turned on I can't put formulas in the Start and End Date. I have other columns that I'm using with formulas to calculate dates that I need. Is there any way to use Resources and have it reflect calculated dates on a sheet?

Thanks!

Hi Jeana,

Currently it's an either-or situation...

Either you can have your own custom Start and End date columns that you can use formulas in separate from Resource Management,

-or-

You enable Resource Management which uses its own special type of Start and End date columns that cannot have formulas.

The way I think of it is that the Resource Management capability is a type of formula in the background, so this takes up the ability to input a second formula. You can read more about formula restrictions in our Help Center, here.

Please also submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment!

Thanks,

Genevieve
