I have a manually scheduled summary task that has empty Start/Finish dates and therefore an empty duration. I want to create manual sub-tasks below this summary task, again with no dates or duration. As soon as I create a sub-task, Project changes my summary task to auto scheduled and inserts a duration of 1 day using the project start date for Start/Finish.

How can I stop it from converting my summary task from manually scheduled to auto scheduled and inserting Start/Finish dates?

Context: I am importing data from elsewhere into Project and certain summary tasks may not have Start/End dates defined just yet. I would therefore like to keep the dates empty, explicitly showing the user which summary tasks still require decisions for dates.

Sorry, I don't know of an automatic method. You can enter TBD in the duration, start, and finish fields and the summary task will stay manually scheduled.
