SYMPTOMS
In the Change Working Time dialog box, when you select a column representing a day and then click Use Default, one or more days may unexpectedly be displayed as exceptions, although the working times are correct.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when a task has timephased percent complete that occurs outside of standard working time.

For example, if a task occurs on a Monday from 4:00 AM until 12:00 PM, and the default working time is 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, that Monday is displayed as exception if you choose the default working times for all Mondays. Note that the working time still reflects 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM.



WORKAROUND
To remove exception indicators, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Tools menu, click Change Working Time.
 * 2) In the Change Working Time dialog box, click to select the day that shows the exception, and then click Use Default. Repeat this step for all days where you want to remove the exception indicators.

NOTE: If you select a column that represents a day of the week, and then click Use Default, some days are again displayed as exceptions, although their working times are correct.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the versions of Microsoft Project listed above.
