Start

Description

Base Start Time is used to calculate current project schedule. It also used to calculate start time of each iteration of the probabilistic calculation.

Note that in most cases, the Start Time is calculated automatically based on predecessor's finish time and lag. If a task does not have predecessors, the default start time is the current time or default start time from options (see "RiskyProject calculation and display options"). If you update the Start Time, the Constraint is set to "Must Start On". See "Start, Finish Times, and Constraints" for more details.
