P6 8.3 webbased data date

Hi Henderson,

you data date has nothing to do with one week activity unless you want to do filter for activities that will start in one week time. To use your data date mostly in primavera should be when you intend to schedule you project, then you change the current data date to the very date day date you are scheduling your project.

Interms of using contraint. bear you in mind that constarint means "limitation" in primavera. therefore it should be use when you want give your activity or rather your project a command to start with a future date. in P6, we have different types of constraint like start on or after, finish on or after mandatory finish, mandatory start and so on.

So never you use constraint in your project without a reason and the reason maybe because your material didnt arrive on time, with that you can apply constraint and it has to be approved by your consultant which in return, will lead to have EOT.

Know you also that, adding a constraint in your project will automatically change your project date and possibly lead to creat anoth baseline or you keep using the actual plan.
