Project Management beyond Gantt Chart Drawing

Keyword start

Purpose

The start attribute provides a guideline to the scheduler when the task should start. It will never start earlier, but it may start later when allocated resources are not available immediately. When a start date is provided for a container task, it will be passed down to ASAP tasks that don't have a well defined start criteria.

Setting a start date will implicitly set the scheduling policy for this task to ASAP.

Syntax start <date>
Arguments date
See date for details.
Context task, supplement (task)
See also end, maxstart, minstart, period (task), scheduling
