MS Project: Introduction

Introduction

At first glance, Microsoft Project seems another application of the Microsoft Office family with the toolbar, both in Word, tables and schedules, as in Excel. But the deeper you will master Microsoft Project, the more differences you will notice.

One of the key differences is the narrow scope of the program. If other Microsoft Office family applications are focused on a wide range of applications and contain a variety of functions, the MS Project program is designed exclusively for project management.

Another important difference is that with MS Project it is impossible to work without possessing theoretical knowledge of project management and not knowing the features of this program. Any user can open Word and prepare a document without reading a pre-book size with the one that is in your hands. Of course, this user will not apply the style of style design, it may not be able to insert the page numbers and so on, but the document will be ready for printing and they can be used. If you open MS Project and try to create a project plan, then without special knowledge you will not be able to get a plan suitable for project implementation.

Thus, if you want to manage projects using MS Project, then without studying the theory of project management and functionality, you cannot do. And the book you hold in your hands should help you with this.

What will you study

The book will introduce you to the 2002 MS Project. When issuing this version, deep changes were made to the MS Project family. If the previous version consisted only from the MS Project 2000 desktop application and complemented by the MS Project Central server package, now the MS Project family includes three applications: MS Project Standard and MS Project Professional, MS Project Server and MS Project Server. In addition, MS Project Standard and MS Project Server version 2002 are translated into Russian.

The standard and professional edition of MS Project are designed to create a project plan, which can then be published on the MS server.

MS Project: Introduction

Project Server for organizing collaboration on the project. Using the MS Project Server server, the project team members receive from the head of the task, report the progress of their implementation, reassign their friend. The project manager in accordance with the data coming from employees tracks the progress of work, and the organization's management analyzes the boot of employees and the state of all projects performed in the organization.

As the DBMS used by MS Project Central, the ORALCE, and MS SQL Server, and MS SQL Server. MS Project Server

can only use MS SQL Server 7 and higher as the DBMS.

For collaboration on project documents a package is intended

Share-Point Team Services, which is part of the MS Project Server distribution. This package uses MS SQL Server as DBMS, and its ability is also available in the standard, and in the professional edition of MS Project.

Differences of the standard edition from professional

If the MS Project Server server is not used in your organization, then the differences between the standard and professional edition will not be noticeable, as they are related to the possibilities of using the MS Project Server.

Combination MS Project 2002 standard edition and MS Project Server is intended for the collaboration of small groups over projects. The combination of the professional edition of MS Project 2002 and the server is designed to work on projects in a large organization. Therefore, when using a professional edition, the server allows operations necessary at a large enterprise, such as centralized storage of project templates and a list of enterprise employees. In addition, the professional version is available to the automated selection of employees in the project based on their skills, and it is also possible to predict the logging of the enterprise, taking into account certain scenarios for the development of events.

The MS Project Server is released in the same edition and can also be used with standard, and with a professional version of MS Project 2002, and even with MS Project 2000. Performance of professional operations on the server is possible only when using MS Project 2002 Professional.

MS Project: Introduction

How to choose the edit and what will need to be installed

If you are planning to work with MS Project without using collaboration tools, then you need to install a program as standard. If you are planning to work together on projects within a small group, then you will fit the standard edition of the desktop application in combination with the MS Project Server. In this case, you will not need to install MS SQL Server DBMS, since the MS Project Server supply includes its abbreviated version, intended for use with the standard version.

Finally, if you need to use the corporate package capabilities, then establish a professional editorial board of the desktop application and the MS Project Server. You will need to install MS SQL Server version 7 or higher. For analytical operations used in a professional edition, the DBMS must support OLAP, that is, the Analysis Services package must be installed on the MS SQL Server.

What's new in version 2002

First of all, the change in the server part of the product, which was significantly recycled. But it was not without change in desktop applications, although they mostly affected the program interface. The most important among them is the appearance of the Project Guide panel (consultant) and the ability to view the MS Project Server Pages directly in the MS Project window. Planning facilities were expanded by the ability to save several basic project plans and analyze the mastered volume based on alternative data on the interest percentage of the task. A list of new features and links to pages where work with the modified elements of the program is described in the alphabetical index at the end of the book.

How will you study MS Project 2002

This course is divided into four parts. In the first part, you will get acquainted with the program interface to learn the features of the tool with which you will have to work in the future. It does not require theoretical knowledge of project management: you will develop the principles of working with tables and charts, learn to enter, edit, sort, group and filter data.

In the second part, we will proceed to the creation of a project plan. In the lessons of this part you will create your own project plan and at the same time

MS Project: Introduction

planning practice will be studied by project management theory. You will learn how to determine the composition of work, how to distribute resources, plan costs and risks, how to distribute the file to approval and compare project versions.

In the third part, you will learn to track the project, that is, to control the implementation of the project plan and contribute to the plan the necessary changes in the course of work. In this part of the book you will learn how to work with the MS Project Server and organize joint work with it. As in the previous part, theoretical materials will be preceded by practical materials. You will learn how to save the original project plan, distribute the tasks to employees, organize the collection of data on the progress of work, analyze the collected data and prepare reports.

The fourth part tells about the additional features of MS Project 2002. You will learn how to work with important, but not so often used by the means

the standard edition of MS Project and how to use the most valuable opportunities for professional edition and MS Project Server.

Files of examples

Each lesson is accompanied by file files, references to which are provided in the text. Files are located on the CD-drive attached to the \\ Bogdanov folder.

In order to use the examples, you need to go out to the main menu and enter the examples directory. Examples themselves are in the subfolder of Samples, and

after copying the \\ bogdanov folder to the disk path to it will look like C: \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples. Examples are placed in subfolders with lessons numbers, such as lesson 2 files are located in the C: \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples \\ CH02 folder.

In the text lessons, the links are given only on file names without specifying the path. For example, if the lesson 10 gives a reference to an example of 1.MPP, it means that this file is located in the C: \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples \\ CH10 folder. In cases where the author refers to the example file, belonging to another lesson, the name of the folder is added to the file name.

In the preparation of examples, a step-by-step principle was used, that is, the changes are made to the project sequentially from the file to the file. In addition, the files were created so that when opening them, the appearance of the project corresponds to the illustrations in the book. We sought to create such

MS Project: Introduction

examples that could be used in practice. We created tables, filters, reports, groups, customizable fields and views You can copy to your project and use to solve practical tasks.

Example files were prepared in the English version of Microsoft Project 2002 Standard and tested in a localized version. Therefore, when you open these examples in the Russian-language version of MS Project 2002, which is located on the CD for the book, the menu will display the duplicate names of some views and tables. If you have no problems with English, then you can work with a localized version as if it were English-speaking. To do this, after installing the program, close it and locate the Global.mpt file on your disk. One copy will be in the folder where you install MS Project 2002, and replace the second copy to the Global.mpt file,

located in the \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples \\ Template folder.

At the end of each part of the book, a list of control issues and tasks is given. They are grouped by themes of lessons, and the answers to them can be found in the text of lessons. Task files are located in the C: \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples \\ Test folders with the addition of the part number, such as files with tasks to the second part of the book are located in the C: \\ Bogdanov \\ Samples \\ Test2 folder.

Index file.

For your convenience, we have created an index file with which you can quickly download the necessary files with examples. This file is called

index.mpp and is located in the C: \\ Bogdanov folder. When you open this file, the Project Guide panel (consultant) is loaded on which there is a link to view the list of examples to any of the course lessons. Selecting a lesson, you will see a list of examples with descriptions. When you click on the name of the Example, the file with an example will open in MS Project (Fig. 1.1).

MS Project: Introduction

Fig. 1.1. After clicking on the View button, a dialog opens to enter the lesson number, and after entering the lesson number in the table next to the Consultant panel displays links to examples to the lesson with comments.

In addition, using the Project Guide panel (consultant), you can view tables with links to the most important pages of the MS Project reference system and on the additional software files that can be installed with MS Project (Fig. 1.2).

Major terms

In the lessons of the first part of the book you may encounter some terms. We will discuss in detail on them at the beginning of the second part, when you will learn to plan a project, but in order for you not to have any questions when reading the first part, we list the main terms and give them to definition.

MS Project: Introduction

The project consists of tasks, that is, activities aimed at achieving a certain result. In order for the task to be completed, resources are allocated - material (equipment) and workers (employees). The allocation of the resource on the task is called the assignment, and the task may have an unlimited number of appointments.

The tasks can be combined into groups (or phases), and the task that combines others is called the total. Completing tasks, that is, the tasks, the execution of which leads to the achievement of an important design result or terminates the phase, are called milestones.

The task has a duration, that is, the time required for its execution. In addition, the task is characterized by the volume of labor costs (scope of work) and costs (or cost) necessary for its implementation.

MS Project: Introduction

In terms of the project, the tasks are associated with the help of dependencies that determine the procedure for performing tasks relative to each other. The duration of the project develops from the time intervals from the beginning of the earliest task before the end of the most late taking into account the dependences between the tasks. If, with an increase in the duration of the problem, the duration of the entire project increases, the task is called critical.

If you meet in the process of reading the first part of other terms, you can find their explanations using the alphabetic pointer given at the end of the book.

We are ready to conduct Microsoft Project training for you, as well as provide advice on using Project to solve your business tasks. Moreover, you do not have to go for new knowledge to the Training Center: We will organize training via the Internet with the help of modern conference facilities. You can order individual advice, or learning a small group of specialists of your organization.

Why do not work courses on MS Project

As a result of communicating with many BRISE clients, we had an understanding of why traditional group courses on Microsoft Project most likely weakly help most of their participants.

  • The coach has a typical course program in advance, in which it is impossible to take into account a different level of training of the group participants, as well as differences in learning, which they put themselves. This problem manifests itself particularly acute when the training is not corporate, and a group of employees of various organizations are collected.
  • With a large number of students, the coach does not have the opportunity to pay enough attention to workers and difficulties arising in the learning process for each of them. It sounds paradoxically, but the more the coach earns on learning a group, the worse he will traine each of its participants..
  • Usually, the courses are just a few days in a row, during which the teacher is trying to "download" in the listener immediately a lot of information, with very limited practices and the inability to comprehend this information in the case. A stunned student can leave a joyful feedback immediately after the course, but after a while it turns out that he learned very little skills, or not those in practice.
  • In the worst case, as part of the project management course, training is not carried out in a computer class, but before the projector board and screen, and students do not receive the practice of using the Project program.

What approach to learning is more effective

Several short seminars instead of one long. Our seminars will last no more than 2 hours. At the same time, breaks between them must be in a few working days so that the listener can master the knowledge gained in practice.

Small groups. With group training, we admit no more than five people in the group, all of them - from one organization. This will allow employees to share each other with the experience gained, and will help work out common approaches to further work.

No trips to the training center. In the 21st century, with the universal accessibility of the Internet, spend on a trip to the class and back as much time as the seminar itself is - a non-disabilities.

Who conducts training: our experts

We offer individual advice on Microsoft Project experts that do not specialize in learning, but have extensive experience in the practical use of the product. BRISE experts:

  • Implement MS Project in organizations of various industries;
  • Writing articles about the use of Project in project management, which are published, including on our website;
  • Respond to numerous questions on one of the main Russian-speaking forums on Project;
  • Solid technical problems, including when interacting with Project developers;
  • Develop additional components to MS Project.

Experts of such qualifications, according to our estimates, no more than 30 people in the CIS, but we offer individual consultations of three of them with hourly pays for the pricing of an ordinary dentist.

Cost of education - 2 500 rubles per hour, regardless of the number of participants (from one to 5 people). If you compare it with the cost of other popular courses, individual training duration from 3 hours can be beneficial than a whole course.

Topics of training and consulting on Project

The training program is individual for each student, or group, and is drawn up according to the results of the preliminary interview. We offer the following popular and important topics that may be included in the program of your learning:

  • Professional configuration of Microsoft Project projects or their templates according to the needs of your organization:
    • automatic indicators of the status of tasks (status, deviations of the volume of volumes, delay delays);
    • setting formulas in user fields to calculate the necessary task performance (planned% completion and volume of work on the date of the report, planned residue, dialings and the pace of execution);
    • setting up representations and tables of the Gantt chart for grouping and displaying the necessary indicators of tasks and appointed volumes;
    • configuration for the head for all calendar indicators (performed and remaining volumes, cumulative developed volumes, deviations for periods and accumulative, development budget, etc.);
    • setting project templates to account for contractors for contractors;
    • configuring OLAP-cube templates to automatically create diagrams and Summary Excel tables according to any indicators of the MS Project project tasks.
  • Consultations on the settings of the examples of your projects and arising in MS Project problems.
  • Setting up common workspaces in cloud storage of documents for access remote participants to project data.
  • Integrating data between Excel documents and MS Project project.

How to get advice

To order training or consultation, you need to perform the following steps.

If you need help with MS Project, contact it right now. While our experts together can allocate not more than 10 hours a week in consultation, therefore it is possible that in the future we will have to raise the cost of this service, or to provide it by appointment.
