P6 - Using the Global Change funciton to remove 'Actual' Dates'

Hi Danny ,

• You can remove progress of activities in a  programme, but to retain the Actual dates and the new Original Durations, you will have to change your links to bring those (Actual) dates on the  non progressed (Baseline programme).

Hi Michael,

No you cant change the data date to an older one.

Hi Danny,

              Why can't we try to save it as second baseline as we do in P3, so that all the actual dates becomes as scheduled plan & then you remove all the actual dates. Jus try it.

if Activity Status not equal Not Started

then Activity Status EQ Not started

note:

if you have resource units already progressed, make them zero first by global change or assignment columns

hi haitham

why do you need to create a new file and then copy paste? can't you change the data date to original data date and run?

You can do the following:

Make a Global Change function in the then pane with AS EQ " " and AF EQ " " and PCT EQ 0

But you will face a problem, which is that you already have progressed activities which means that the data date has an advanced date over some/all activities. So if you followed the above cited instruction you will have your project unprogressed but not matching with the original dates. So you have to make a new file with a project start date same as your original file, copy all the activities from the original file and paste them in your new file then follow the above instruction.

Note: Dont transfer the old calender in your new file as that will change the data date again. Create a new one
