David, it was not clear from your post what you are asking, so I will assume the worst case.
P3 is also called Primavera Project Planner. It was Primaveras flagship scheduling tool for many years and has a large and loyal following.
Primavera now has "Enterprise" scheduling tools called Primavera Enterprise (P3e) and Primavera Enterprise for Engineering and Construction (P3e/c). They use a database backend like Oracle or SQLServer.
There are several threads here in the Planning Planet discussing P3 vs. P3e (P3e/c is basically the same as P3e as far as I understand it - only minor differences).
There are a lot of differences between the two programs.
The Major one is the concept of control unit; in P3 you are controlling each project as a separate unit has its own resources, costs & reports.
But at P3e you are controlling the whole enterprise not only a project and with its other programs you can get a complete view of running and closed projects at any controlling level. This is the major topic but there are a lot of differences inside P3e and no way to view it at one report.

Some differences b/w P3 and P3e:
1. P3 only has 1 level for sub project, P3e using EPS to define some level of subprojects.
2. P3 can define direct material (m3 concrete, dia-in pipe) as resources , P3e cant.
3. P3e provides work steps, P3 no.
4. P3e graphical report can show ev curve, P3 cant.
5. etc.

Hi,
There are a lot of differences between the two programs.
The Major one is the concept of control unit; in P3 you are controlling each project as a separate unit has its own resources, costs & reports.
