FAQ: If I Edit the _____ Field, What Will @RISK Do with the Project Schedule?

Answer:
All schedule computations are performed by Microsoft Project. During each iteration, @RISK:

1. Computes random numbers from your input distributions.

2. Sends these values to Project.

3. Retrieves the resulting values for @RISK output fields after Project completes all schedule calculations.

The schedule is computed exactly as it would be if you manually entered the random values into Project. There are no special rules for project scheduling just because @RISK is being used.
