Importing activity codes in xer file

Hi

The first client xer programme that I import into a fresh standalone database will include the activity code assignments. However, when I import further updated xer files, the activity code assignments are not imported.

Would be grateful if anyone is aware of this issue or has a solution.

Regards

Brad

Best import and export selection options - how to keep it the way the client has it without adding your codes to their project?

No variance column to compare in Current File Actual finish to Baseline finish - isn't that the most important item?

No variance column to compare in Current File Actual finish to Baseline finish - isn't that the most important item?  -  Am I wrong, I could in P3, it seems crazy that P3 was/is better in many ways....

Complex Negative Float Query

Hi all,

I am looking to resolve some negative float on a P6 schedule handed over to me.

Please note:

1. There are no hard Constraints

2. No 'Must Finish By' on the project date

3. No external relationships 

 

As you can see below, the on the 'Project Start' activity the 'Late Finish' is earlier than the 'Early Start'. (DD is July-22).

Any help would be appreciated!

P6's crazy calendar

J
John Reeves 👤 Member for 13 years 1 month

I date vs duration complications I cannot figure out.  I assume it is from the contractors's calendar.  I am going to import others to see.  But also, will all time be calculated correctly if I put the hours per time period at 8dy 40 wk 172 mo, 2000 a year.  It is odd p6 makes you do this because each month is a different amoun 30/31 dys month etc. Is there a source as to a good basic setting for 5 dy wk , 6dy wk, 7dy wk.
