Importing MSP into Primavera

Dear Fellow Planners,

I have to import a number of MSP’s into Primavera 6. I have a unique ID in column "Text1" in MSP I want to be reflected in the Primavera "Activity ID" column but do not know how to change the rule in the import box. As you run through the import criteria it reaches a screen called "Import Confirmation" that then has a section "ACTIVITY" that states "Import Microsoft Project’s Task ID field into :Activity ID". This is where I would like to change it to "Import Microsoft Project’s Text1 field into :Activity ID".

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Bob

    Hi, If you import the Text1 field in to a suitable User Defined Field in Primavera. You can then run a global change to change the activity id.

    Let me know if you need any help
