How to Add Saturdays to Microsoft Project

‍

‍

By default, Microsoft Project treats Saturday as non-working, so tasks won’t schedule work on Saturdays unless you change the calendar. Here’s how to do it:

‍

1. Let's start by clicking on the "Project" tab in the ribbon menu.
2. Now, select "Change Working Time" from the dropdown options.
3. In the dialog box that appears, click on "Create New Calendar" to set up your weekend schedule.
4. Give your calendar a descriptive name like and click "OK" to continue.
5. Navigate to the "Work Weeks" tab to customize your working days.
6. Select Saturday in the days list, then choose "Set day(s) to these specific working times" radio button.
7. Now, enter your Saturday working hours - perhaps 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, or whatever suits your project needs.
8. Click "OK" to save your changes. Saturdays are now officially part of your project schedule.
