Using Float On when MORE resources are available

Float On
Resources are consumed based on the number of resources defined against the work unit. Resources will only be consumed up to the Float Consumption Max value set against the work unit. 

Float Specific
The max consumption rates values will apply to all work units.
 

Using Float On when MORE resources are available

1. Right click on the work unit and select edit
2. Set the value of Resources to 4
3. Click on the Schedule Tab and select Float On
4. Schedule an operation at 09:00 (8 hours run time / 2 resources)

In this scenario the 8 hours required are delivered by four resources instead of the two defined in the operation. Elapsed time is 2 hours.
