Resource Limitation/Restriction in Primavera

Hi to all Experts,

I was wondering that how to manage my limited resources through Primavera P6.

If the Case is like that :

I have 6 activities 

Activity A

Activity B

Activity C

Activity D

Activity E

Activity F

Actually, Activity A B & C having Start to Start relationship with one crew and i have only one crew which will perform its job after completion of 1st group of 3 activiteis. Furthermore, the successor of Activity C is the Activity D & than linke to Activity E & F with Start to Start relationship. 

the question is, how can i prevent activity D for being actualized unless my Activities of group 1 didnot finish its job, becasue i have one crew only in order to perform after completion of Group 1.

hence, i want restriction on activities with the help of due to limited resource.

Hope i everything is clear here, for more information please see the snap shot.

thanks...... :)

Set the MAX Unit/Time for the Crew in the resource Pane. In your example the MAX unit is 3 Multiplied by Working Time for the crew per day. Say your crew will work 8hrs per day then your MAX will be 24hrs/day.

Hope this will help

Thaks Mr. Raymund for your reply,

Settting MAX Unit/Time is not solving my problem, let me explain you again that :

I have only one crew which is working parellay with 1st group of activities i.e. activity A, B & C, second part is that my activties D, E & F will start just completion of activity A, B & C. 

all activities has assigned one crew only which will work only when my Group 1 Activities will finish, therefore i am wondering an option whcihc will stop me to start any activity in group to unless all of actvities finish in Group 1.

Hope you understand what i am looking for.

thanks.....

After Setting my suggestions... run Resource Levelling with priorities.

Hope this will help.

Actually it is the workflow function, I think this is can't automatic generate (depending on the current reviosn function) .It only can be found by manual.

this depends on your logic if Activity A, B & C have Start to Start relationship with one crew and Activity D, E & F have Start to Start relationship with the same crew thne make activity D a successor to activity A and make E a successor to activity B and make activity F a successor to activity C or make D a successor to activity A all with FS relationships.
