Ok.. I would get back on this after I have taken the training course (I plan to do it on my own). Thanks for the feed back Thanat.

Well...it is subjective to say if it’s easy or difficult but here’s my tip.



The major change from p3 to p3e is the EPS. If you understand this concept, everything will be easier.



I previously got stuck with the EPS then believed they were totally different system at the first time. Actually, EPS is nothing but a higer level of project for company wise management. In addition in p3e, all coding stuff such as activity codes, resource codes, WBS, OBS and cost account are shared among all projects in the EPS.



I suggest you try to open an individual project, go over all the functions you’d learned from P3 (i.e., organize, filter, global change, layout). There are all the same.





I did attend the basic courses of p3 and p3e. They used almost the same training contents but replaced the old p3 screen with the new enterprise version. In the other words, they teach you how to do the same thing by hitting different icons in p3e. My bottom line is that the training’s good as long as your company pays for it.



Feel free to share with me your experience with the p3 to p3e imgration. I am also working on this stuff. (I found some wierd things when importing p3 file to p3e.)

I would agree with Ronald. After talking to a friend yesterday who had been using P5 for six months now, I was advised to learn P5 as a different software. According to him, although basic concept is the same, moving from P3 to P5 is not easy unless P5 is treated as a completely new software. Thanks for all the input friends.



I would be going for the basic training course in P5 to learn about navigation first, then if time permits, I would go for the advanced course.

I disagree with your statement. I found a solid knowledge of P3’s functioning a real hindrance in trying to learn P5. Nothing is the same (including how you open a schedule all the way down to defining the types of activity and duration.) It was not until I stopped trying to compare the two and just learn P5 as if it were a new piece of software that I was able to make real headway in understanding P5.

That’s not difficult if you’re proficient with P3. P3e has very similar functions and commands yet considerable improvement :)

Iftikhar Awan,



I’m agree.



If u have good experience with P3 ... it is not going to be difficult for u to go direct into an advanced curse of P5.



Regards.

I have just had a 2 days P3e Version 5 Basic Course (P102). I reckon if you are comfortable with using P3e/c Version 4.0 or 4.1, there isn’t really much new things to learn from the basic course. Suggest people with P3 or P3e/c experience to go straight to the Advance course or maybe the P3 to P3e Version 5 conversion course.
