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 Mamerto,

What type of Resources? Labor or Nonlabor? If you are talking about Manhours, this is Labor. If your Resources loaded in days, just multipy it by 8 hrs or 10 hrs per day depending on your calendar’s assignment.

Mamerto, I can do it for you. Pls. send me your .xer file to p3-fer@sixco.ae

Dear All,
The S-Curves are prepared based upon manhours.
In primavera P3, Go to Tools, then Tabular Reports, then Resources, then Loading.
Click on Loading. Click on add (it will open one box).
Then Go to Modify Tab and select your resources.
Then in Format Tab select Export report in CSV format and browse the location where u want the file to be saved.
Then in the same tab you can select the activity code.
Then in the Timescale tab you can select the data range (ie..the range of dates u want the s-curves values)
Then in the same in the display box u can select the typr ie wekkly ,monthly (If u select weekly it will display the values in week).
Then click OK and RUN.
It will display the excel file (If the file is not displayed at that time go to the specified location which u have given and open it)

Dear Moutassem ,
The S-Curves are the curves which represents the planned progress and actual progress. The values can be derived from the primavera itself. If you need the detail information send me a reply to mdmujtaba24@gmail.com.
I will send it ...Inshallah
