Use Case:
- Jeff Test has an assigned task – Review Proposal.
- The task has a Start Date of 10/4/2012
- The task has a Due Date of 10/4/2012
- The task has a Duration of 1 day and Work of 8 hours.
- Richard will assign a resource to the existing task and the Hours will decrease.
- Duration and Work will remain the same.
Richard updates the task as shown below. John QA has been assigned to the task at 100%.
Richard clicks Recalculate from the toolbar.
The task now shows Hours decreased by 50% to reflect the work of both Jeff Test and John QA. Duration and Work remain the same.

| Fixed Work Task | Assignment Units is recalculated | Duration is recalculated | Duration is recalculated |
| Fixed Duration Task | Work is recalculated | Assignment Units is recalculated | Work is recalculated |
