The changes you make in the Change Working Time dialog box must match the changes made in the Options dialog box. You can also indicate the number of working days in the month, with 20 days being the default. The Options dialog box allows you to change the working hours and the duration of the work day.

When you change the default working hours, you make the changes in the Options dialog box and in the Change Working Time dialog box for the Standard (default)calendar. Microsoft Project will then schedule the extra hour into the next working day and extend the duration of the project. Therefore, if you have entered tasks and altered the working hours so that the work day starts at 7:00 AM, Microsoft Project will not recognize any work completed before 8:00 AM. By default, all tasks are scheduled to start at 8:00 AM. If the work day is longer or shorter than eight hours and/or starts before 8:00 AM, you need to make these adjustments before entering any tasks or the durations for your project will be incorrect. For example, if the standard working hours at your company are 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM with an hour for lunch, you would need to adjust the project calendar. You can also specify the length of the workday.

You can modify the working hours to reflect the actual working hours for an entire project. The default working hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with an hour starting at noon for lunch. In Microsoft Project, the default project calendar, called the Standard calendar, defines the standard working hours for all projects. We also provide Project Management Training and PRINCE2 Training to provide you with excellent project management skills.
