If you walk through the import you see a window "Update Project Options". Select "Advanced" in the bottom of this window. Then try "units as hours".

Sorry, one of your sentences I don’t understand: "... in p3 is 4 duration is 10 days". What do you mean by this 4 = 10 ???

Diater,

The units are same in p3 and p6. What i found is.. Unit per time in p3 is getting wrongly calculated in the p6



Eg: 8hrs per day calender

unit per day is specified in p3 is 4 duration is 10 days



In p6 it converts like this



4*10=40*8 = 800h i dont knnow how its come.. but i think this is the funda... bullshit p6..



Cheers

Just two ideas:

1. Parameter Planning Units: Hours or Days: May be you selected days but planned in hours.

2. Resource curves: Sometimes not really compatible - e.g. "curve A" bell shaped in P3, triangle in P6.

May be others have more ideas.

Regards

Dieter
