As previously noted, review the "new in P6" information in the Help files. From a base functionality, end-user standpoint, there are really very few differences between P5 and P6.1. A lot of the enhancements came on the back-end for the client. If you are relatively new to scheduling and just learning P6.0/P6.1, then you will find the two versions virtually identical. In fact, a lot of companies still train people on P5 using P6.0 or P6.1.
Its really more in the advanced features and the web that P5 and P6 start to differ. P6.0/P6.1 Web Access is light years ahead of where P5s web access (aka myPrimavera) was.

Hi Shazia
If youll carefully read through PP, youll find many hints. Most important will be, to ask your senior colleagues, because every company has its own style.
Basically an epc-schedule will contain Depending on project:
- Milestones
- Overhead activities
- Engineering
+ Basic
+ Detail
- Procurement
+ Inquiry
+ Evaluation / purchase order / admin
+ Manufacturing / Tests / Expediting
+ Shipment / Customs
- Site: Mobil. / Demobil.
- Construction
+ Civil
+ ... depending on project
- Commissioning / start-up
- Warranty
The coding will depend on needs for reporting
By:
- Phase
- Equipment
- Subcontractor
- Discipline
- Companys standard
This was just a basic example which will vary by project

Hey, Dueter.

Hi Shazia
Primavera is delivered as a set of 4 cd. The third one is the documentation cd. There you can find the refManual as a pdf. The P5 manual would work with P6 as well.
By the way: This is the category for P3, your question relates to Primavera Enterprise/P3e/P4..

Dieter
Hello Dieter

Hi Shazia
P6 is the new release of P5, so no need to join a training for P6 if you are acquainted to P5. Training in P6 only would be useful, if the P5 training was of poor quality and a good location for P6-training.
If youll open Help in P6, there is a chapter "whats new in P6". For me the major improvements have been:
- Better performance of some database-related actions
- Resource allocation
- Define a limit for role allocation
- XML-format
- Curtains are related to a layout.
But there are more.
Regards
Dieter
