Dates are wrong

Go to preference - display time

check your predecessor time. Especially if the predecessor is a start milestone (It default start @ 8:00am as a result your successor will be on the same date

You’re right, but can i just use days without hours as a duration?

regards

When I Import p3 into P6, durations were messed, duration and lags turned into days-hours, how can i set this up so that next time i import from p3, it will be just days, not days-hours.

HI Alfon

As long as you set your preference as planning in days it should be ok.

When you import from P3 you do need to verify you calendar

Hi Alfon,

I agree with Alex, P6 Calendars is in hours not in days.

Hi,

Before importing from P3 you need to do all the Preference setting of how it is available originally in P3 and then do the importing, it will do good. Don’t try backwards from P6 to P3 then it will be a mess. Primavera recommends migration from P3 to P6 and not taking it back.

Regarding the dates it follows the hours. The base duration in Primavera is in hours.

Arnold,

You are close; the real answer is, “P6 schedules durations in something like half-hours.” Open any calendar and click on the “Detailed work hours/day” button on the top. You will see that you can assign any half-hour as a ‘work-day’ or a holiday.

The next interpretation of what P6 schedules to can be found by setting your User Preferences to show Time and to show Minutes. If you will look at any reasonably complicated schedule, you will notice that activities are scheduled to begin and end in minutes with 08:01 and 08:29 being common ‘dates.’ This tells me that P6 schedules down to the minute and perhaps even less. It is a real mess, isn’t it?

Hi,

Thanks Ronald. I should say P6 Calendars is in "half-hour" not in day.
