Are UDF Field Formulas Not available in Ver 20.1?

C
Casey F 👤 Member for 10 years

Is anyone aware of the process for setting up formulas in P6 v. 20.1.  Its been a while since I utilized formulas in the system, and can't seem to find any correct instructions on how to complete this that references the newer versions. 

Following the UDF instructions of the Oracle websites gets tripped up at the first step as I am not able to select Formula as a data type in the UDF field. 

Is this possibly a permission thing? (I have admin superuser) I am thinking the process just changed with the version changed so any In-sight would be great!

Update Problem on Duration Types

B
boran ucar 👤 Member for 6 years 6 months

I've created an activity and set it's duration type as fixed duration and units/time and percent complete type to physical. I've assigned two resources as 20/d units/time, 1000 units and 50 durations.

Later on, I've updated schedule on 25th day of this activity and entered actual units as 800.

Copy of activity - activity ID is not following the default settings

Hi,

IN P6, When an actitivy with Activity ID 1000 is copied and pasted, using the 'increment value 1' the actitvity ID of the copied activity should be 1001.

For most of the projects it is working as it should, but in some projects it is not

Is this a bug? or a setting I am not aware of?

(When pasting the copied activity, i use the setting of "increment Activity ID based on selected activities")
