THE RESOURCE MOVEMENT ARROWS ARE GRAYED OUT - SO UNABLE TO MOVE THE RESOURCES - LEFT, RIGHT, UP OR DOWN.
EVEN IF I ADD NEW RESOURCES THE ARROWS STILL REMAIN GRAYED OUT.
STRANGELY IN BOTH THE LAPTOPS. WHY IS IT SO?

Thanks A Lot To Dear Mr. Zoltan Palffy too.
With The Very Best Regards.
Dear Mr. Alexandre Faulx-B & Mr. Santosh Bhat,
It worked - "The Resource Movement Blue Arrows" have appeared - Image Attached.
I had actually accidentially turned on the Resource Group & Sort by Primary Role. Therefore the Tri-State Toggle was alternating only between the first 2 states and not showing the third state i.e. 3 Lines - Indent arrows - Hierarchical Structure.
I did not know that this Column Header is "A Tri-State Toggle".
Thanks A Lot To Both Of You,
With The Very Best Regards.

Vikas,
The Column header for Resource ID is a Tri-State toggle. It can be clicked three times, once for sorting Ascending Alphanumerically, Again for Descending Alphanumerically, and thirdly for Hierarchically based on the Resource Structure.
Make sure you click this three times to go through each option and you should see the indent arrows appear when it is displaying the hierarchical structure.

I have pasted 2 Screen Shots of my my Resource ID Column Header.
If I click on the small triangle as shown in the upper image it gives the options as shown in the image &
if I click the small triangle as shown in the below image then P6 just Sorts the Resource ID's columns.
But there is no option where the small triangle changes to 3 lines.
Thanks & Regards.

Vikas,
Look at the Resource ID colum header in the Resource Workspace:
you will see a small symbol on the right side of the header: click on the symbol until you see 3 small lines instead of a triangle; then you will be able to move the resources by using the 4 blue arrow buttons of the tool bar on the right side of the screen
this has nothing to do with User rights, and a stand-alone P6 running with SQLlite database has no access to user rights and profile

no they should not be greyed out I thinks it is a rights issue
go to Secuirty profiles make sure all of the Has Previleges boxes are checked for whatever profile Name is checked above.
Dear Mr. Santosh Bhat,
The filter is "ALREADY SET TO DISPLAY ALL RESOURCES".
I watched 2 YouTube Videos where the Presentor is also having these arrows grayed out in the video - So I think the Standalone Version seems to have these arrows grayed out - Maybe - I am not sure.
Thanks & Regards.
not so sure of that
Zoltan, SQLite databases don't have any user or security profiles - so those options wont be on the menu.
Its likely becuase the resource view is filtered. Select to display ALL RESOURCES and the arrows will appear.
READ MY POST ITS UNDER
Admin
Security Profiles
Dear Sir,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using Primavera Standalone P6 Professional Release - 16.1 with PMDBSQLITE Database
The Admin Menu has only the following options -
1. Admin Preferences
2. Admin Categories
3. Currencies
4. Financial Periods
The other options i.e. -
1. Users
2. Security Profiles
3. Timesheet Dates
ARE MISSING
With Best Regards.
make sure that you have the proper rigth to do this. It is lsited under the Admin Security profiles make sure all of the Has Previleges boxes are checked for whatever profile Name is checked above.
