Hi!
I'm trying to customize a calendar in Project 2013 PRO. My ressources are working on a remote mine site and have a special rythm, working 8 consecutive weeks and being off 2 consecutive weeks.
I tried to use the exceptions parameter (see discussion "Calendar management : recurrent leave"), but I always end with a conflict when I'm creating the second week off ("The exception conflicts with #1 "First Week Off". They have both the same type of exception, Weekly, and their interval overlaps. Either chang the date range or change the type of exception").
We ended with no solution, assuming that using VBA would be the best way to customize the calendar. Please let me express my needs :
We have a cycle of 10 weeks, the 8 first are worked according to the standard calendar and the last 2 are off. Cycle starts when the ressources are entering the project (I assume I'll need 1 calendar per entry in the project). The challenge is also to link the start of the cycle with a task start date.
I hope my description is complete and clear. If not, feel free to let me know. Would anybody have any suggestion of code I could use?
Many thanks in advance for your time and assistance !
Myke.
