Project export task formatting - Due dates not exported


Applies to: MindManager Pro (X5, 6, 7)

Symptom
After exporting tasks to Microsoft Project the due dates are not being set.

Cause
The due dates in Microsoft Project will be calculated based on start date and duration.

Resolution
The MindManager MS Project export does not use task due dates when it creates the Project file. To correctly calculate tasks for export to Project, you need to format the task in MindManager to use the Start Date and a duration value. 

Duration values can be hours, days, weeks, or months. Map files that contain only start dates and due dates will result it blank tasks when exported to Project.
