Good Morning.

How was your night?

It is still on how to use Microsoft Project. Today, I will be teaching you how to assign resources. Resources are the materials workers need to complete given tasks.

Resources cannot be assigned except tasks are identified. Resources are categorized into four type: Work (people or equipment), Material (paper, ink, toner, etc), Cost (airfare, lodging) and Budget (project-level work, material and cost resources).
