Merlin Project: Where to Change the Calculation Unit for Durations?

Where to Change the Calculation Unit for Durations?
Merlin Project Support

You have a project and need see all durations in the same unit? Here is how to define the calculation unit in Merlin Project.

You use Merlin Project to schedule your projects and keep track of work, resources and cost?

Then you already know how to enter new activities, define them by 'Given Work' or 'Given Duration' as required and/or assign resources. So let's assume that you have two activities; defined one by 13 hours, the other by 4.5 weeks of given work.

You need now to show - maybe for reporting reasons - 'Planned Work', 'Expected Duration', etc by activity or assignment. So you enable the desired column(s) in the outline or Gantt. Merlin Project calculates the information, uses the statistic work values and selects the unit coming nearer to the entered values. That shows the first activity by a planned work of 1.62 days, the other by 1.12 months.
