Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi,

I have problem regarding duration with my primavera v6.7.
I export files from Primavera v6.2.1 to Primavera v6.7 but the original duration incresed but the start and finish date is still da same date. I checked the calendar and admin preference, it the same setting as my P6.2.1 setting. The original duration for all of da files that i export to P6.7 changed.

Can someone help me regarding this issue?

Tasnim,
Duration is calculated based on activity caledar assigned as limitation of working period for date and Hours per time period for time unit set (i.e. 8h/d, 40h/w, 173.3h/m etc...)
check if Hour per Time Period is the same as calendar total working period per day and the same setting on P6.2.1

Tasnim,
Check each calendar you have assigned to the activities in the schedule. The units/time are now set at the calendar level. If this is out of sync with what you had used originally then you may have an issue.

Also I’m not sure how the WBS durations are calculated if you have different calendars assigned under the same WBS, possibly defaults back to the admin preference for that calculation???
