F9-schedule

But then that’s what you have asked Primavera to do by pressing F9 ore reschedule.

When you reschedule, all the remaining activities will be recalculated to start on the data date subject to relationships and constraints.

But then that’s what you have asked Primavera to do by pressing F9 or re-schedule.

When you reschedule, all the remaining activities will be recalculated to start on the data date subject to relationships and constraints.

Then how to actualise data? When ı insert new relations, durations.. to see them on the gantt chart ı have to use F9 button.ıs it true?

Of course, you have to reschedule to see the effects of new relations, changed durations etc.

If you are just changing relations and durations and want to see their effect, you should have the data date as it was before (no need to change). If you change the data date as well, you will see the combined effect of your changes + change in data date.

So the simple answer is: press F9 but do not change the data date (this way you will see the effect of changes you have made).

"Then how to aCTUALISE DATA"

R u asking how to insert the actual dates?

If so, then in the activity form table, click on the early start and early finish dates tick box to put in the actual dates.

As bijaya has said, u need not necessarily chnage the data date every time u chnage durations or relationships.

Aytac,

It sounds like you are just starting to get to grips with P3. I strongly suggest that you get Paul Harris’s book on how to use this software, i believe it is available from Amazon. It will have you familiar with the basics very quickly. There is a lot more depth to the software capabilities than is covered in Paul’s book, but it will get you up and running then you can look at the wonders of ODBC, exports, global changes and the infamous Report Writer

hi,
if your wanting activities to ’stay put’ once you have hit the F9 key you can assign Constraints that force them to stay where they are when you F9,, you find your Constraints when you hit the F7 button,, they activities will push to the right once your datadate is pressed up to them if they havnt begun,,
hope this helps
