Hello All,

 

How would you represent Duration and Hours in Minutes.

 

If you want the duration to be 15 minutes what would we type it in hours 0.15H or the duration is 45 min = 0.45H

 

If we want a resource to work 1/2 an hour would we type 0.30H or if a resource is working for 45 min = 0.45H

 

A little confusing.

 

Thanks

Jithin

    Hello,I am not sure to fully

    Hello,

    I am not sure to fully understand your question; P6 cannot display duration or work in minutes, the shorter unit being hours.

    When you  enter "0.50h", i.e. "30 minutes", P6 displays the duration in the unit designed in User preferences.

    May I ask you another question? Is P6 the most appropriate planning software for such shorts tasks in a project?

    go to edit users

    go to edit users preference

    click on the time units tab

    under Unit of time make sure it says hour

    under durations format change that to hour

    then on the right under decimals make sure that is set to 2 decimals
