In this video, Anthony Sequeira covers deadlines in Microsoft Project 2013 and the differences between them and task constraints. He shows you how they are far more flexible than task constraints. He also shows you how to set up a deadline in your project and how you can format its appearance.

After watching this video, you will know exactly what a deadline is in Microsoft Project 2013 and what differentiates it from a task constraint. After Anthony fires up the program, he first shows you the limitations of constraining a task to finish by a certain date.

He then takes this same task and applies a deadline to it instead. He shows you how, by doing this, you can gain a lot more flexibility in terms of scheduling. He also shows you how this deadline will graphically display in the program’s interface and the ways in which you can change this if you would like.
