Previous Month Status File Shows Incorrect Actuals

S
sam dsoza 👤 Member for 20 years

Hi

I have a P6 Master Forecast File. I have attached the Baseline File (BL) and Last Month Status File (BL1).

When I compare dates shown in Last month P6 file the dates do not tie to the actual dates for activities concerned. I am stumped as to why I see incorrect actual dates in the previous month file. 

Has anybody else encounteres this problem and what is it that I am missing or doing incorrectly?

 TIA

Remaining Total Cost Distribution

Hello everyone,

I have an activitiy (not started) which is scheduled to start in 29 March 2017 and finish in 08 May 2017. However, when i chect the remaining total cost layout, it shows the total cost only in May 2017. It does not distribute the cost evenly.

I do not have any curve assingned to that resource. 

Calculation settings which are checked:

Link budget and At Completion for not started activities

Reset remaining duration and units to original

Substract actual from at completion

Event in Aberdeen

PMI Aberdeen - Tuesday 14th March 18:30hrs

Summary:

After Forty years implementing computerised Project Controls, why is everything still the same?

Nearing the end of his career, David muses on a lifetime of trying to help people manage projects better. From mainframe to iPhone, the float is still negative. Has any of it helped?

Saving Different Language in P6

R
Ron Liu 👤 Member for 9 years 4 months

Hello everyone,

I have problem saving P6 acitivities that are entered in a different language. I'm using P6 16.1 and my activity description is in Japanese. When I'm done entering the activities and exist the schedule, all activities would display question marks when I open the schedule again.

Does anyone know a fix?

Thank you.

Stacked Histogram across suite of Projects sorted by Role

I have a suite of projects that is resource loaded with defined roles first and people filled in as resources once they are assigned.  I have a stacked histogram set up to show by resource and by role separately. Is there a way to combine that function in p6? I need to be able to choose a role and show that stacked histogram for say "engineers" and have the stack be bob, suzy, joe, fred, etc., excluding "project managers" and "designers", for instance.
