    When leveling resources in Primavera, activities on the critical path may have their finish dates delayed, pushing out the project finish date. However, by checking the "Level resources only within activity Total Float" option and setting "Preserve minimum float when leveling" to 0, Primavera will only delay activities that are not on the critical path, keeping the project finish date the same. This allows resource overloads to be resolved without impacting critical path activities and delaying the project.

    Level Resources

    Normally when we Level Resources, Primavera will delay an activity so that Resource is not
    overloaded. It can make Project Finish date delay.

    How can we make Project Finish date not delay? I’ll show you how to do it in this article.

    We have a simple project with 2 activities assigned Resource A and 2 activities assigned
    Resource B.
    If we do Level Resource now, Primavera will delay 1 activity of Resource A and 1 activity of
    Resource B. And the Project Finish date will change because activity of Resource A is on critical
    path.

    How about we tell Primavera that it should only delay activity which is not on critical path.
    So we will Go to Level Resource, Check on “Level resources only within activity Total Float”

    “Preserve minimum float when leveling = 0” mean after Level Resource, activity still have Total
    Float larger than 0. Otherwise Primavera will not move those activities.

    Now Primavera only delay activity of Resource B. And the Project Finish date does not change.
    So Primavera help you to automatically solve overloaded problem for activity which is not
    in critical path.

    For those which is on critical path, you will manually solve it.
