Float timesThe float time is the time in working days between activities. Float times can vary. Float times that concern an activity:
The calculation is done as follows: If the value of the Relationship Type field is equal to ES (End-Start) (the next activity starts when the preceding activity has ended) then free float-time (ES)= Earliest start date of the next activity - relation float times - activity duration - earliest start date If the value of the Relationship Type field is SS (Start-Start) (the next activity and the preceding activity start simultaneously) then free float-time (SS)= Earliest start date of the next activity - relation float times - earliest start date Both float times are calculated after you run the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session. If both float times are zero, the activity belongs to the critical path. The absolute relational float between activities is maintained in the Activity Relationships (tipcs4110m000) session. Float times can be entered in two ways:
One of the two sorts float-times can be entered in the Activity Relationships (tipcs4110m000) session.
