Cash flow could be created by primavera 6 version 7 using the reports section, However i found primavera 6 v7 reports are not very clear that every one can do it simply,  Therefore  see step by step how to create planned values and earned values using primavera p6 v7 reports.

rigth hand side click resource usage profile options

on the data tab select costs

on the graph tab make sure that calculate average is not checked.

click pagse setup

click the options tab and check the profile box and uncheck all of the other boxes.

you can also assign a curve to the resource to distribute the cost the default uses a linear distribution.

Hi Hany

I tried to access, but they wanted to become a member before; so I don't know how you did it.

In the past I did the cash flow with P5 and P6. But due to the poor print quality of Primavera graphics I used Excel to print the graphics.

 

Hi Madan

you are wrong, it is possible, but there are other ways as well.

 

Regards to both of you

It is simple false cash flow. Actually Primavera can't do cashflow in real time. 

Ex- I need to pay 20% on opening of my LC then after deliver rest 60% after receiving goods & testing, 6 months latter rest to be released. There is N. number of example where P6 will be failed to deliver. so don't follow this tutorial.
