Good evening to All.

I work on "stand alone" version of P6. After reinstalation i have problems with resources.

I have created for my schedule labour resource with "default units per time" = 99/day. I have assigned it for few activities, put a number of budgeted units and I have started to schedule. It was ok. Everything was going just well. We were measuring progress of our project using this units.

...but...

After reinstalation of P6 when I opened my schedule, budgeted units for this activities were changed. The same with "default units per time" =9/d (?).

I don't have any idea what have happend. Maybe somebody had some similar problems with importing xer after reinstalation.

I will be grateful for any feedback.

Yes of course.
I've done some research and found solution.
Issues was concerning to "Multiple resource assignment" in "User preferences panel".

After re-installation some options have been changed. One of them was "Resources Assignment". After restoring settings and user preferences everything is just fine.
Thank you for your effort.

i assume that you exported the file prior to reinstalling p6  ? Then imported it back into p6 after it was reinstalled ?
