TMGR: Lag Time Ignored If Task Scheduled Past Last Day of 2050 (150105)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Team Manager

This article was previously published under Q150105

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Team Manager, a task that has a large lag time assigned to its predecessor is scheduled such that the lag time is ignored.

CAUSE

Microsoft Team Manager ignores a lag time which causes a linked task to be scheduled past the last day of 2050.

WORKAROUND

Assign a lag time that is short enough to keep the linked task within January 1, 1984 12:00am and December 31, 2050 11:59pm.

MORE INFORMATION

In a finish-to-start relationship, lag time defines the time that elapses between the finish of the predecessor task and the start of the following task.

In Microsoft Team Manager, the lag time must be short enough to allow the linked task to be scheduled within the Microsoft Team Manager boundary dates of January 1, 1984 12:00am and December 31, 2050 11:59pm.

If a task's lag time attempts to push a task past the latest date, Microsoft Team Manager displays the scheduling conflict icon and explains that the task could not be scheduled, possibly because the task would exceed the Team Manager limit of the year 2050.
