I have a problem when importing excel to primavera version 6.7 the issue that i export XLS file for resource assignment including Activities & Resource & resource assignment but with applying some filter , after i update the resource data and import back the XLS file by importing resource assignment only ,comes the problem that some actual data is changed like Actual start and actual finish also the remaining duration is going crazy for some activities it gives something like 2465 days also some %complete is changed to 0

    the changing of actual dates

    the changing of actual dates is impossible since you are only importing resource assignments

    to make sure that no actual date even has a chance to be changed do not export the Activities only export the Resource & Resource assignments

    then only import the resource assignments

    what is your activity type

    what is your activity type and duration type on the activites that are changing 

    if the activity type is resource dependant then this would be why the durations are changing 

    also if the duration type is fixed units this could be why the durations are changing
