Dear all
i would like to ask about how to update Schedule (A) from another Schedule(B), note that both Schedules have the same of Activities and Activities ID but i just Change that lags in the relationship as i have created 2 scenarios and i have updated (A) and i would like to apply the same updates to (B).
Regards,

Beware of the following trap/BUG.

Export schedule B as a XER. then open schedule A and import B as update of A. next time you can use special tool in P6 - Reflection.
Actually, I'm asking about a single click like this in Primavera P6.
This is such a frequent requirement as some contractors keep different versions with different strategies, same as you. So common that in Spider Project it can be performed at a single click of the mouse by clicking on Import Performance from Other Project.
Just kook for similar functionality within your software.
Anything else than a single click of the mouse for something so frequent I would consider a nuisance.
Note that: import of performance data is executed with the following peculiarities:
If source project version (from which performance data is imported) has resource assignments, initially absent in destination project version (to which performance data is imported) – these assignments would be automatically added to destination project version.
Performance data cannot be imported for resources, initially absent in destination project version.
If source project version has activities, initially absent in destination project version, these activities will be automatically added to newly created phase ‘Unscheduled activities’ (with Code ‘$$$’) in all work breakdown structures of destination project version. Links of these activities will not be imported
