Undo Button

Hi Sukumaran Subaramaniyan,

P3 is only a 16 bit programme, which limits its ability in it’s software construction to be able to "undo" input.

Because Real planners don’t make mistakes. They don’t need to redo/Undo their work. P3 noticed this quality in planners and made a decision that a UNDO button would not be required because it will not be USED.

New version of primavera (ver.5.0) has this undo feature. Its due to be released sometime in April 2005. Hope this solves all our problems.

thankx

No, P3 will never have an ’undo’ feature. Primavera has announced that have frozen all feature enhancements for the P3 product.

The other Primavera product, P3ec, P3e, Teamplay will be receiving the undo feature with their upcoming release of Version 5.

Incidentally, it has nothing whatsoever to do with P3 being 16 bit. Its to do with the database architecture, most people who used pre-windows software didnt have an undo feature anyway, so dont miss it.

I’m afraid Ron is right.

P3 is frozen and will not have any upgrades.

One of the reasons that P3 doesn’t have an undo button is because it is a multi-user application. What you may want to undo chould have been changed by somebody else in the meantime; invalidating your undo action.

So in order to make this (really) work you would need to build quite some rigor/logic under that undo ’button’.

For the very same reason it took a while before an undo ’button’ appeared in P3e/c/TeamPlay/IT Project Office/Project Management. (release 5, just announced)

Hope this helps.

Niek.
