Good morning, 

 

 

i have problem when primavera 6.7 calculate the duration at summary level -wbs

as i have to change admin preference - time period

and this affect other projects

how can we let  primavera calculate duration at WBS level  for each project according to project's calendar

as example now - wbs first activity start on 2-Nov

last activity finish 2-dec

so duration should be 30 days

but it shows only 10 days

i don’t know how
