Microsoft Project – Understanding Project 2021
1/5
Microsoft Project is a full-featured project management software program, sold and developed by Microsoft. It’s designed primarily to help a project manager in creating a plan, delegating resources to various tasks, tracking progress, controlling the budget, and monitoring workloads. The tool was created with the intention of making it easier for people to work on projects, without having to spend too much time doing so. Although Microsoft Project does have many advanced features, it doesn’t have everything that you might want out of a management program. This article will go over some of the things that you can do to maximize the functionality of Microsoft Project.
Microsoft Project has a very simple interface, as compared to other productivity suites, such as Excel or PowerPoint. Because of this, many users prefer to use Microsoft Project over these other products because it is easier to navigate and understand. The program makes it easy to organize a variety of different tasks by dividing them into several groups. For example, you can group all of your document creation tasks together (with the exception of adding files to the Office module) or you can break each task into a task group, such as “file types”, “date and time”, “receiving and sending.”
One of the best ways to make sure that Microsoft Project is working well for you is to learn how to customize it. The program comes with a number of “layswows”, or feature sets, which are essentially ways to customize the way that the program works. For example, you can change the behaviour of Microsoft Project when certain tasks occur, such as opening a spreadsheet or adding a file to the Office module. You can also set up the “start” date and time of the year, which will cause Microsoft Project to be launched at specific times each year. These are just some of the customizations that are available in Microsoft Project 2021.
