Enterprise-> Calender

Hi Mr.Mani,

as per my understanding i thik you have already assigned 6 days calender to activity and then you have change the default calender to 7 days work week, thats why it is still showing 6 days work week calender.

If this is the condition you can opy for global change or you can just select 6 days calender for one activity and the fill down to rest.

My Problem is Not Activity Calender

My Problem is with WBS Summary Bar Calender

Because P6 will Calculate Original Duration of WBS Summary Bar Based on Project Default Calender

My Project Default Calender & Enterprise Calender  is 7 Days Work week

So My WBS Level 1 Orginal Duration Should be 78 Days (19- March to 04-June) But its Showing 67 Days based on (6 day Work week Calender)

Can u say me How can i Show Orginal Duration as 78 Days

I am using P6.7 Oracle Database

Dear Mani,

may be due to user preferances time period data,your WBS Summary bar is showing incorrectly.

the WBS Summary also takes this in to consideration while calculating the duration.

so along with the default project and enterprise calendar the user period duaration must also be matching.

like if you want to have 6 day per week calendar in the wbs summary bar then follow the steps

go to edit --user prefernaces---time units ,

if you are working 8 hrs per day then

Hours/day-----8hrs

hours/week--8*6=48hrs

hours/month--48*25=200hrs

hours/year --   2400hrs

Calendars for Calculating WBS and Other Summary Durations

In Primavera Version 6.2 and ealier the summary duratios were calculated on the Global Default calendar.

In Version 7 the summary durations, including the project duration in the Projects Window are calculated in a similar way as SureTrak:

·         When all the activities in a band share the same calendar then the summary duration is calculated on the calendar of the activities in the band and

·         When they are different the summary duration is calculated on the Project Default calendar.

The picture below has the Project Default calendar set as the 8hr/d & 5d/w and the picture shows that when the calendars are different then the Project Default calendar is used to calculate the summary duration for WBS Nodes, Projects etc:
