In Microsoft Project 98, when you level resources, resources not selected for leveling or resources with the Can Level field set to No may still be leveled for some tasks.

This behavior may occur in Microsoft Project 98 for any task that has actual work and also meets all of the following conditions:

  • The task has a percent complete between 0 and 100 percent.

  • The task has multiple resources assigned.

  • At least one of the resources assigned to the task is eligible for leveling (has been selected for leveling, has not completed all assigned work, and has its Can Level field set to Yes).
This behavior occurs regardless of the setting in the resources' Can Level field and regardless of whether you selected them for leveling. It also occurs whether or not Leveling can adjust individual assignments on a task is selected (to set this option, click Resource Leveling on the Tools menu).

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
