Hi Guys,


Trust you are doing good. I am trying to define a field in P6 and make P6 calculate its value in the future like we can in excel.

I know how to define a user field and classify it as a number/start date/integer etc., but is it possible to put in a formula in P6 that will do calculations for that field?

Example: If my User field = Preparation for start date; I want this 'preparation for start date' to always be 2 days before the start date of an activity. Is there a way to store a formula in P6 that will do Start date - 2 days = preparation for start date and display it in the customized field?

Thanks a lot,

Akhilesh.

    Hai Akhilesh, It is not

    Hai Akhilesh,

    It is not possible to put in a formula in P6 that will do calculations for any field in P6 standalone ver.

    This can be done in P6 web-based application L4 license with main server at your end.

    I am not sure whether Oracle has this application but it was before with Primavera.

    Best of Luck.

    Akhilesh,

    What you can do is export P6 to excel and do your calculations in excel and then import it back.

    Cheers!
