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,

 

I having an issue when i add a new resource on to a activity, Primavera  zeroes all costs added on all previously added resource.

and re calculate the units. I hacve unticked the auto compute and calc costs from units for the resouce but still happens,

Any ideas how to stop that from happening?

2 things to check 

1. make sure that the duration TYPE is set to fixed duration & units/time 

you might have to add the column for duration type change the 1st one to fixed duration & units/time then do a fill down for that column.

2. go to the project directory make sure that your porject is highlighted click on calculations then in the lower left make sure that 

reset remaining duration and units to original
