Re-Baseline with actual progress

ALL-

After series of delays in the project that i'v been working on, the client ask for a re-baseline of the planning. I'm wondering if i could re-baseline with actual progress and submit it as the new baseline of the project. Or, should i remove all actual progress and start all over to match actual dates and then submit it clear of any progress.

Thanks,

replacement for the SDK in later versions of P6

Hi

we are (finally) moving from P6.7 to 6.17 and I have noticed in preparing the migration that Pv no longer supports SDK in later versions of P6. I see no Pv provided replacement as yet (but may have missed it). Is there a recommended replacement, either Pv/Oracle provided or 3rd party? Specifically, I will miss the ability to build and manipulate activity code libraries and WBS structures

or am I going to have to take the plunge and learn to code the API?

cheers

James

Free Float greater than Total Float

E
Emma Lang 👤 Member for 9 years 10 months

Hi, 

 

I'm having an issue with Free Float v Total Float, in some instances I have Free Float which is greater than Total Float. I understand the difference between the two so I don't understand how free float can be greater than total float. I read somewhere that it could be a poor use of constraints and I have constraints in these activities / milestones to try to hold the completion dates, either Finish On or Finish On or Before. 

 

Any advice would be appreciated. 

Emma
