Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi

This relates to P6 release 6.0

We are noticing a problem where the resource histogram profiles are running well past the activity completion dates.

Does anyone have some idea as to why this is happening?

We think it may be a software error where a previous resource phasing distribution has not been removed/replaced.

Please also ensure that the drive activity dates is checked on and the lags are 0 for your resource assignment:

One more reason could be that, there are activities with negative float which is because of unsatifactory constraints attached to activities in the network. Remove the constraints to the activities connected with the activity's network path.

Stephen,

I suggest to investigate the Calendar assigned with the Resources. View the Start and Finish date of the Primary Resource.

 

Hope this will help.
