P3 DATE FORMAT

Member for

20 years

It looks like this thread died back in 2003, but I have a similar question:

I’m still using P3-3.1 and the various date formats available in this version don’t accomodate the ISO 8601:2004 format (namely yyyy-mm-dd). Do newer Primavera versions provide this or can I add it to 3.1?



Ideally I’m looking for 2005-DEC-13, but 2005-12-13 would do.



Advice appreciated! Thanks.

Dear Guest,



When someone goes out of their way to help you, you should first try listening, then complaining. Not the other way around. Gilbert is perfectly correct in his advice. It is now up to you to implement his advice. Your computer Windows defaults have nothing to do with the date format displayed in P3 schedule.



Open your P3 project, select the “Format” menu, select “Dates…”, and then click on the date format you wish. Click “OK” and you are done.

Thanks Gilbert...



But what i need is to add a date format on my

P3 not to select a date format...because the default

date format in my P3 is all numeric...

I need to add a date format which i wish to use

too before i can select..



hope somebody can help me...



thanks,
