Problem with Primavera Export from P6v7 to P6V8.3.2

I assume under schedule options the parameter recalculate assignment costs after scheduling.

Dieter

Yes "parameter recalculate assignment costs after scheduling" box is checked. Actually the date is also wrong after he tries to run the schedule on his system. I think I know one of the issues. All callender were project calender in the original schedule but they were some of them were exported as a global in the new system. Help what do i do.

Thanks for your reply.

To start to resolve this issue:

- Unmark "recalculate..."

- For project calendars add project's short id to the name. In your case a global calendar with your name existed already; this was remarked by import and this calendar assigned

- Check the import options. They are self explaining and a good help function for more explanations. Don't overwrite master data in the target system. 

- Compare the parameter settings of both systems.

Hope this helps

Hi Tom,

Make sure that the project calendar name (in your P7 system) doesn't match any of the global calendar names in the new system, I think that's the problem 

1. The calendars could be the problem meaning different working days 

2. Your data date TIME may be different edit, users preferences, Dates tab, check 12 hour and show minutes

now f9 and check the data date TIME. Also the Project start TIME Project Must finish by date TIME and any constraint date TIMES

3. The duration type maybe different

4. The resources maybe different in terms of default units / time

5. Also check you admin Preferences under the Earned Value tab 

Look under the Earned Value Calculation and make sure his setting are the same as yours 

Dear All,

Good day! I humbly seek your advice regarding the same.

I encountered the same problem as Tom. In my case, my colleague made the program in P6 6.0 and then i imported it to P6 8.3. Then the Budgeted Total Cost was different from the one he made and the one that was shown in my program. I inspected the breakdown and it seems that there are variance in the prices of resource loading. I also tried to check and compare the settings that he used in his program as follows:

1. Recalculate assignment cost

2. same calendar settings.

3.  same Earned value settings.

However, i still cant resolve the issue. Is there any other suggestions you can give regarding this?
 

Thanks in advance.

Look at my attachment here and you can choose waht you want to import. Under calendars make sure to choose insert new

Also make sure that the default calendars are the same including holidays and work HOURS PER DAY

Also make sure tha your data date TIME is correct
