Hi Emily,

Thanks for the post. I have this question. Could an EPPM database be converted to P6 Professional database? We implemented EPPM R8.1 but due to non-availability of Admin and EPS management via Optional Client our project controls group is not so pleased with the upgrade as they have to go to web client each time they need to add or move an EPS node and certain other administrative functions. Furthermore, under the web interface, it is not that easy to manage a newly added EPS node as the same automatically goes to the bottom of EPS structure and then it is a frustrating excercise to bring it back to desired level or location.

I hope you will be able to shed some useful light on the above concerns and will share if there is an easy fix.

Thanks

It's changed again!

In Primavera P6 R8.2 the Optional Client and P6 Professional are now one and the same. You can read about this welcome change here http://bit.ly/xAFgOD
