Resource Critical Path

[The MPUG Community]

I am teaching PMs about Critical Paths (Critical Path, near Critical, False Critical, Important versus Critical, etc) and want to show Resource Critical paths.  One way I way trying to show them is to look at the Resource Usage View and show tasks on the Critical Path.  We are using Project 2007.  Is there a way in the Resource Usage View to know which tasks are Critical Path?  My point to them is that a Resource on the Critical Path may be doing a task on a non-critical branch immediately prior to the Critical Path task.  Thus, the task on the branch becomes “Resource Critical”.

I do know that Project Pro developed a utility for Microsoft Project called Complete Critical Paths that helps to identify resource critical path.  You can get additional information at: https://projectprocorp.com/products.php#Complete Critical Paths – version 2.0.  Feel free to take a look and see if that helps.
