You can still specify task effort and resource units with any amount of precision, and OmniPlan stores those values in case you switch back to exact scheduling. Regardless of the granularity setting, OmniPlan doesn’t forget any of the values you enter.
In that case, the task would start at the specified time on its assigned day in the schedule. The one exception to this rule, however, is if start times have been set before switching to daily granularity. The 58-minute task ends at the end of the day, successor- and resource-leveled tasks begin on the next day, and so on.
With Daily Scheduling, start and end times are always pinned to the beginning or end of work days. A task starting at 8:00 with an effort of 58 minutes (or even 1 minute), ends at 9:00 successor and resource leveled tasks begin at 9:00, and so on. With Hourly Scheduling, start and end times happen at the next whole hour mark. The start and end times of tasks are exact down to the second. This setting is not just for display purposes, but actually changes how exact OmniPlan is about scheduling tasks.īy default, OmniPlan uses Exact Scheduling: if you have a task with an effort of 58 minutes, starting at 8:00, then it is drawn exactly 58 minutes long on the Gantt chart, dependent tasks start at 8:58, leveling makes the resource begin working on the next task at 8:58, and so on. You can use the Granularity control in the Project Info section of the Project inspector to have OmniPlan round every duration up to the nearest whole hour or day.
