    Check if your time period,

    Check if your time period, calendar settings, time units and also resources calendar of your P6. is matching on the imported file  If you want to match the budgeted hours check all your settings.  It could be the imported file is using hours as time unit but your program is days or vice versa. Possible also is your calendar used has the same name as your P6 but different workweek and timeperiods.
