In the Open Standard

Hello all,

 

Any help would be very much appreciated.

 

I have a resource loaded P6 Plan that I would like to import actual start and actual finish dates into together with a percent complete (units %). I have run an export from the same P6 plan and I have tried to add a start date and a % complete to one of the activities as a test – for some reason when I import the same file (so I know all the fields are named correctly etc) P6 tells me that the import was successful, however none of the changes to the activity have taken place. Strangely the only change that takes place is an Actual Start is assigned, however this in not the date that I have allocated in the import,,,

 

Any ideas – I’m scratching my head here!

 

Many thanks

 

Jon

    fixed this issue now, ALL

    fixed this issue now, ALL fileds associated with resource coding also need to be amended accordingly (not wanting to sound like a stuck record by P3 was better at this kind of thing), my main error was not amending both the remaining budgets on both activity and resource,, also the starts, actual starts, finish and actual finish take some playing around with.

     

    thanks anyways
