Question

Multiple Critical Paths P6 In MSP I set a deadline date on milestones and it would display a critical path to each, is there a way to replicate this in P6?
The standard Multiple critical path setting in the advanced tab of Scheduling options is not what I am looking for, I need to display a separate critical path for each milestone I select in my schedule, this would be representing different work streams.

The best way to achieve this is to take your WBS structure and make multiple projects out of them, BUT make sure you keep all the logic in tact between all of your WBS levels. Once you achieve this you can calculate not only multiple float paths but also the overall critical path. They key is under the schedule options when you press F9 to play around with the "ignore relationships to and from other projects" check box.
