We are using Primavera version P6 version 7. We exported project from Primavera to Microsoft project (MSP) - First export from Primavera to XML 2007 then import XML 2007 to Microsoft project.
After exporting we noticed ID in Microsoft project is different sequence. Following is the sample
Microsoft ID
Primavera Project ID
Activity Name
Duration
7
J3201
Activity A
0.5d
13
J3202
Activity B
0.5d
8
J3203
Activity C
0.5d
16
J3204
Activity D
1.5d
9
J3205
Activity E
2d
Please note for second primavera ID (J3202), MSP populated ID is 13 and for third primavera ID (J3203), MSP populated ID is 8. (Instead that, for the second primavera ID, MSP ID should be 8 and for third primavera ID, MSP ID should be 9, if it is in the same sequence of activity ID).
Relationships and durations are exported correctly hence dates are correct but the order is different than the actual process.
With what information from Primavera exported file MSP ID is created?
Is there any other unique ID other than Activity ID is created in Primavera while adding the activity? If yes may be based that MSP ID is created.
How to create the MSP ID in the same sequence as the Primavera Activity ID?
Regards
Abraham
