Can you tell the difference between bars and tasks?
In Asta Powerproject, Bars and Tasks are two different object types that work together. You can have multiple Tasks on the same Bar, but not the other way around! This can be useful for procurement strings, building multiple houses, or fit-out activities for apartment blocks.
