WINDOWS | MACINTOSH

The error message “Late date before scheduled date in task (number)” is displayed when a task has negative slack. It is not, however, necessarily a task in the active project file. For example, if two project files are open and task 4 in one of the files has negative slack and the other project file is active, then the error message will still be displayed upon each calculation.

To find the task in question, create a filter to find tasks with negative slack and apply it to each project file until you find the correct task.

For more information, query on the following words:

late and date and filter and negative and slack
