Overview: The critical path, differences between planned, scheduled, and actual dates, lead time and lag time, and deadline dates can affect the way Microsoft Project schedules. By default, Microsoft Project calculates only one critical path. However, you can calculate critical paths for an independent network of critical tasks, so that you can see more than one critical path in the project. Viewing multiple critical paths can be useful for analyzing different phases or milestones or for examining the structure of subprojects inserted in your project. This paper tells you other factors that affect how tasks are scheduled.
