Hello all,

I have recently started using P6.0 and I would like to know if any of you could gudie me to some tutorial materials online.

I have noticed a lot of differences in P6 compared to P3.

Firstly when i wanted to create a new file in P3,it is very easy but where as in P6 I have to create an EPS or arrange this in on the EPS structure. I have not properly figured that out.

Secondly I normally use Activity Codes in P3 and the difference I noted was that the activity codes can themselves have sub sections. I have not figured out this one too.

thirdly to create a baseline in P3 is very easy, but where as in P6 its a bit confusing. I have not figured out where this base line will be shown on the EPS structure.

Then again resources and roles are all complicated. they have many options and it all looks like P6 is suitable for Big companies who would have a data base of all resources and would like to manage their resources using P6. I have just started off with P6 and I am sure the more I try the more doubts Ill have

For a small project in a small comapny P6 takes more time I guess..

I would be greatful if any of you can pass me some materials to learn P6

regards
Shareef A Azeez
