How to force tasks in Microsoft Project to be "scheduled" based on priority and resource assignment? -

I needed to plan some high-level project that is not really fit in our day-to-day workflow. Management tools (fogbugs and whiteboards), so I thought I was able to give MS Project a whirlpool (it was released via MSDN).

I hit a very solid wall, although I have about 120 functions, a group of people (being referred to as "resources" is surprisingly harsh.) , But I recapture), and a very priority of those tasks. In some tasks he has been assigned a person, nothing (just because we do not know who is doing so far).

Okay so far. The problem is, in those relatively rare instances where the functions are connected (most of the tasks included in it can be done in any order), all tasks are set to run simultaneously

Your relative priority

Any link / dependency, if defined

I have defined that the availability of people, I have already made clear the "resource" assignment I respect A

Is this possible? I have fielded with the resource level dialogue and I want to read the MS Project document that I want to accept, so any suggestions are welcome.

FWI, I have seen this in my searches; That person looks after almost a single thing, but I think it might be more rewarding to ask here.

After a few more experiments, I have found a partial solution for my question if you: / P>

• Allocate an assignment to each task
• Specify the all should work in the Advanced tab in the task notification panel (select all your Click on the Work Info button to update these properties for work and all tasks):
  1. Use a calendar (which means
  2. No ignore resource calendars at the time of scheduling
  3. as soon as possible (in the ray project file) Which is the default, I believe)
• Select the level processing from
• A leveling order of "priority, standard" To roll in relative priority values, click on "level now" in that level processing dialog, and all the tasks Should be Yul so they can be reset.'re not together, and there is no "Ovrsileld".

  You can apparently keep the project automatically, tasks like addendum things like add, edit, etc., but I suspect that the result will be in chaos, because nothing about the processing level process From which I think this "static" (eg, two levelings will not do the same timetable for back-to-back).

  It would be nice if the project "will be allocated completely" which you have configured so that you are assigned a task in order to assign people to work only in a way that Is not right. Any thoughts on that front will be most welcome.

  It seems (and feels like!) Is like a lot of work, but I believe the result is relatively good - a super-high-profile view of a project that can be used for day-to-day flexibility High level allows, but still "interdisciplinary activities" (like once it is done, we need to buy those four servers, provide a way to plan reasonably, make sure that ours Legal content is taken into account, and drag the trigger on that marketing push, a week later, etc.)
