Hi Community, I have a question about best practices for planning and profiling requirements/assignments. PMs very often profile requirements in our projects. However, it sometimes happens that activities need to be extended. In such a situation, extending the activity by changing the Schedule Finish or directly extending the Duration causes the profiling set by the PM to be completely disrupted, as the system itself tries to adjust the data to the new end date. The PM would like it to remain as originally set and to be able to profile additional days/months manually. Is there any functionality that I am not aware of that allows this? 

​@swka Hi, As far as I know, There’s no direct way to extend an activity without affecting the existing profile, but you could try setting the effort or utilization to zero, saving, and then reapplying the original effort. In some cases, this helps reset the spread.
