P6 EPPM v20.12 LOE actual labor units not populating

Hello,

My project management level of effort (LOE) activity has progressed Duration % Complete 7.89%, but the actual labor units of the assigned labor resource is not populating. I tried the below:

1) Actions | Recalculate assignment costs.

2) Schedule option 'Recalculate assignment costs after scheduling' set to on.

3) Percent Complete Type of LOE project management activity set to Duration.

4) Set 'Recalculate actual units and cost when Duration % Complete changes' set to on.

5) Duration type set to 'Fixed Duration and Units'.

MSP Export file

Whilst I have imported MSP files many times I have only ever exported P6 to MSP once several years ago. Running 17.12.8, the PM has asked for an MSP export file but he can't open an mpx which I gather is for old versions of MSP. Everytime I try to export to an an XML I get an exception error. How can I get an MSP export file?

Bulk New Project creation tool? or SQL function?

Hello All,

 

I have recieved an excel spreadsheet that contains about 500 rows and 8 columns.

The columns are:

Project Id

Project Name

and 6 other columns that match our Project Code directory.

 

My question is, do you know of a way that this spreadsheet can be used to create new projects in bulk?

 

Regards,

 

Rod

XER Tables Relationship Diagram

A
Adam Walter 👤 Member for 15 years 2 months

I am looking for a relationship diagram that shows how each table within an XER is linked.

I have seen this info is available in the schema however it'd be much more useful to see this data "visually"

If anyone can help out rather than me recreating the wheel it'd be appreciated

Incorrect Duration % Complete value at WBS level

T
troon sigma 👤 Member for 6 years 2 months

Hi P6 experts, I am looking at Duration % Complete column and noticed that the activity with lowest Duration % Complete, its Duration % shows at the WBS level.  It seems that at WBS level, the software isn't calculating the correct Duration  % Complete, rather just showing Duration % of the activity that has lowest Duration % value Can someone advise on how to get correct Duration % value at the WBS level? Thanks

Physical % complete for milestone date

Hi Planners

I am updating a schedule and the first activity is start milestone, when I enter the actual start date, the percentage complete does not change to 100% and I tried to fill it manually but it does not work. It works for other activities.

 

Regards,

Muataz
