Hi guys,

I wrote a short paper about the steps on how to use Software Development Kit (SDK) in Schedule Preparation. It is very simple, full of screenshots and easy to understand especially made for those who are beginners in SDK. I hope it would help some of our PP members who just came in and for those who are newbie in SDK.

I would like to share it to all our PP members who are interested. Just post your e-mail and i will send it to all of you.


Cheers,


JEFF

    Hi Roozbeh,

    As i have mentioned in my SDK GUIDE you will be needing;

    1. Activity
    2. Dictionary
    3. WBS

    What i used there is a compatible version for 6.x. I am using also version P6.v7. Many had requested under my thread and if you want it I can share it with you.

    Cheers,

    Hi Jeff,
    I have a problem, After filling the WBS names and click the update project list button, the excel hang. I am using a P6 server, also my computer setting does not have Primavera SDK. The system DSN is Visual Fxo Pro database.

    Could you please advise?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Paul,

    Install SDK first which you can find in your CD1. When you run SETUP...choose modify then you will find the option for SDK...choose SDK and follow instructions to complete your installation. let me know.

    Hi Jeff,
    I have installed the SDK but the excel still does not continue when I click the Update Project List button... it shows the hour glass then a wait prompt. How many minutes will i have to wait for processing?

    Hi Paul,

    You have to set first your SDK to ODBC. Go to your control panel=>Administrative Tools=>Data Sources(ODBC)....Click ODBC then click the TAb System DSN=>Add...then look for Software Development Kit...click it then Finish.

    Your SDK will be shown then Configure it....put ODBC Name Primavera SDK..then OK.

    When logging in to your P6...choose PMSDK as your database...then put your PC Name/PRIMAVERA as your Host Name and pmdb$primavera as your database name...Let me know.

    Hi Sinan,

    There is also an Excel File for P3. Under this File you can find the Resources Tab wherein Cost Account lies. You can find this Activity.xls from your installation of P3 under the folder RA. Are you using P3 and P6 in your current project?

    Cheers,
