Calculate

The system calculates the task’s estimated duration. APM sets the task’s estimated duration to the trade, tool, or service requirement with the longest total duration (Lag time plus the Required for time). For example, suppose a task has three trade requirements: • One mechanic: 4 hours, 0 lag (4 hours total) • One electrician: 2 hours, 3 hour lag (5 hours total) • One mechanic: 2 hours, 5 hour lag (7 hours total) The third requirement has the longest combined required for and lag time. As a result, when the estimated duration is calculated, the system sets task’s duration to seven hours. Alternatively, clear the Calculate option to enter the estimated duration.
