Summary of the filtered items in bar

Hello ya'll,

I have a filter on my planning so I only see the items of my discipline. In none of the heading bars I can see the

correct summary of the items shown in my chosen layout.

Now I copy them to Excel so I can select the items I need to know.. But this doesn't work efficiently..

Anyone has the answer?

Thanks! Mi

Resource levelling

I'm trying to understand why P6 resource levels over non-working time hours.  For example, I have a resource that only works Monday - Friday but when I resource level, it shows as an over-allocation at the weekends where I would have thought it would extend the duration to account for this.  I do not have the "Level resources only within activity Total Float" option selected.

Can anyone suggest where I may have a setting wrong - I have been through all the user prefs and cannot see anything to affect it.

Thanks in advance!

Negative Float for a Project

Currently I have a project which I am working on with Starting Date 1/jun/17 and Finishing Date 1/jun/19. As a result of some delayments during cinstruction its showing - ve Float value. I know I cant just edit the date or change the baseline date as well.

 

Cause in the end it depends on the data date entry. Therefore I would apperciate if anyone could guide me to find a solution for this issue. A way by wish I can reducde that float or make it even a +ve value would be much better.

 

 

Looking Forward to hear from you guys soon.

Activities with Incorrect Start / Finish Times

S
sam dsoza 👤 Member for 20 years

In my current project that got handed over to me, I have 2 calendars. 95% of those are on Calendar 1 and 5% Calendar 2.

About 20% of activities have incorrect start and finish times (not starting at 8a or finishing at 5p) (although the dates are most possibly accurate)

Is there a quick way to fix this?

 

TIA

Primavera P6 Professional File Transfer Requirements

Are you transferring a Primavera P6 schedule file from one counterpart P6 database to another, most likely from subcontractor to customer? If so, then you and your counterparts will want to establish agreed upon file transfer requirements to control project schedules produced or updated by counterparts. Here's a look at what's involved http://ed.gr/ey9q

P6 Global Change Question

S
sam dsoza 👤 Member for 20 years

I am trying to match "plan" dates in P6 to "start" or "actual Start" dates depending on the case using global change. For some reason "plan" dates do not change to "actual" dates despite committing to the global change.
Was wondering if someone else has encountered the same problem and what measures you to make it work.
