Dear Planners,

I convert a project from MS Project to P3, but when it is converted to P3, I found that all activities are independent, is there anybody know why?
Anyway, I used global change to change it to task.

Regards,

Moutaz

    By default activities are "Independent" in MSP. That is when a resource is assigned to an activity then it will acknowledge the resource calendar, unless one checks the "Do not acknowledge resource calendar box". MSP does not have a equivalent to a Meeting task so they are often correctly imported as Independent. But as there are so many ways of importing a MSP schedule into P3 I am not sure they all treat the tasks the same way.
