PRJ98: Resource Peak Units May Be Displayed Incorrectly

• Microsoft Project 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project 98, resource Peak Units may display incorrectly in a resource view.

For example, time-phased resource Peak Units for a period may be blank even though the resource has assignments for that period.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs when multiple assignments for a single resource for the same time period exceed the Microsoft Project limit of 10,000 units (1,000,000 per cent) for a single resource assignment.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, install Microsoft Project 98 for Windows Service Release 1 (SR-1). Resource units will not be displayed incorrectly when multiple assignments for a single resource for the same time period exceed the Microsoft Project limit of 10,000 units (1,000,000 per cent) for a single resource assignment.

STATUS

This problem was corrected in Microsoft Project 98 for Windows, Service Release 1 (SR-1).


For additional information about obtaining and installing SR-1, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

MORE INFORMATION

If the sum of all assignments exceeds the 10,000 limit for any period, the time-phased resource Peak Units field for that period in the Resource Usage view will be blank, and the resource Peak field on a resource table will display as 1.
