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.

I am new to P6 using P6v7.

I entered activities & their durations the normal way & added resources to the activities. It is showing like this: -

Original Duration Column as 20d [ fine as I entered 20 ]

Budgeted Units as 20h in Bottom Layout - Resources TAB. [ when i entered 20 as days, it took as hours]

This affected my Budgeted Total Cost Column, as my cost is taking the durations from the resources (in hrs.)

 

can anybody help, i guess some adjustment required in Preferences but i don t know where.

Try:

Edit - > user preferences - > Time units. There you can choose Units and Durations to Day.
