Can you bypass user preference settings for setting number of hours allocated per day

I would like to use the calender assigned to each activity to specify what a day is in hours

I am trying to combine programs with different calendars

Many thank’s in advance

Regards,
Mike Perry

    This is a major fault with P5/P6 which I raised with them a long time ago. We also need to use different hours/day calendars due to activities happening in different work areas. Primavera (now swallowed up by Oracle) identified this as an ’improvement’ request which they will consider. But I think probably now forgotten. I have my concerns about what focus Oracle will have on any correction or improvement of the package.

    Primavera promissed that this improvement will be part of next release i.e. P6 ver 7 expected towards end of this year.

    Michael,

    The only option that you have is to change the preference settings to hours for duration. This will give the correct durations but is not ideal!
