UDF - Loosing data!!!

Thanks for this thread.



The PRIM quoted does not seem to be right - but not to worry



What I was looking for was where EPS Activity codes are deleted for no apparent reason. The reason that I since found is that I used ’Check Project Integrity’



There is a glitch in P3e when ’EPS level’ Activity code assignments are removed by ’Check Project Integrity’ prim32313.



So the moral is do not use ’Check Project Integrity’



Now to remap the Activity codes - oh well. Thank god for backups.

Amir,



This is a known defect with Primavera 5 with the combination of SQL Server, Paste Project, and User defined Activity fields. See prim30231 in the Support knowledgebase.



You have two workarounds that will resolve this.



1. When copying projects, organize the projects screen by something other than EPS. Problem is only when pasting and you are organized by EPS. Or

2. Add the following setting in the PM.INI file in the section [Options]

UseSPToPasteProject=0



Solution 2 will force the program to not use a stored procedure used when copying. Problem is with the stored procedure.



Regards,

Bill

Amir,



Are these activity codes or activity UDFs ? The subject reads UDF, but the body of the message indicates codes.



Also are you using an Oracle or SQL Server / MSDE database.
