Hello,

In eed to change a planning setup in hours to a planning in days.

I’ve created a copy with planning unit days and tried to convert the TF and FF Values using export -> divide values by 8 and import, but the FF will not change.

Any suggestions what I can do to convert this project?

Thanks,

Maurice

    Hi there,

    you could try copying the project, if you go tools,project utilities,copy.

    you should be able to select a planning unit when you are selecting the copy To options. i.e hours, days, weeks, months

    Hope this helps.

    Scott,

    This part I know, but that doesn’t change the OD/RD/LAG/FF/TF etc.

    Maurice,
    when you copy a project A with planning unit = days to a project B with planing unit = hours, P3 does not calculate the activities original duration from day to hours
    you should use Global Change to divide activities OD by 8, and P3 will take care of all the rest of it
