Visualize Project Delays with this Trick!

📌 Description: Need to show a delay in your Microsoft Project schedule — without changing real task data? Microsoft Project doesn’t have a built-in “delay” feature, but there’s a smart workaround that does the trick. In this video, I’ll show you how to use a dummy task to clearly display a delay — whether it’s a weather event, a contractor issue, or anything else that halts work. I’ll walk you through how to insert it, format it for visibility, and analyze the variance it creates. ✅ Works in both Standard and Professional versions ✅ No macros, no custom code — just smart scheduling ✅ Great for real-world disruptions like hurricanes or unplanned outages 📰 For more Microsoft Project tips and tricks: https://www.dalehowardmvp.com/microsoft-project-tips-and-tricks/ 💎 Download your Quick Access toolbar for Free: https://www.dalehowardmvp.com/free-quick-access-toolbar ✅ Get your Free Quality Filters here: https://www.dalehowardmvp.com/free-microsoft-project-quality-filters/ ✉ Have questions or want training for your team?
