Global Changes with resources

Member for

Irfan,



To add a resource via global change:



1) Assign a code (or find some other way of filtering) to each activity you want to add the resource to

2) Go to global change, leave selection tab blank

3) On change tab, use the ’If’ section to set up your filter as per step 1, in the ’then’ section enter:

Data Item = RES, Criteria = AD, Data Item/Value = your resource

4) If you wish, you can use the 2nd line of the ’then’ section to assign the resource level, using either BQ (budgeted qty) or UPT (Units/time period) fields

5) Do a trial run to be sure results are as expected before running the global change



Cheers,

Dear Irfan,



I recommend you to use IMPORT/EXPORT method.



- Assign a resource to one of the activities.

- Tools/Project Utilities/Export

- Export Activity ID-Resource-Budgeted Quantity for all activites to a xx.DBF

- Open xx.DBF in excel

- Copy-Paste Resource and Budgeted Quantities to activities. Save the xx.DBF

- Tools/Project Utilities/Import. Import from xx.DBF



I am not explaining each button, you can use Primavera Help (F1), it is really very good.
