Adding Tasks to an Exported Schedule

You should add entries for new work order tasks to a schedule in APM, not to the exported schedule in MS Project. If you add new tasks in MS Project, they will not appear when the schedule is imported back into APM. For example, you could export your schedule to MS Project and complete the resource assignments and leveling functions, and then realize there is capacity for additional tasks.

You can add new task entries to the APM schedule, re-export your changes to the same MS Project file, and then complete the schedule in MS Project.

Note that you can move tasks between a set of schedules in MS Project, provided that work order task has been exported already as part of another schedule.

To Add Tasks in APM to an Exported Schedule

1.	Open the schedule in APM.

2.	Add the new task(s). For more information, please see Adding a Task from the Work Backlog.

3.	You can now re-export only the entries that you changed to MS Project. You must do this in order to see the new task in the MS Project file. For more information, see Exporting Schedules to Existing Microsoft Project Files.
