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.

Thanks! both guys

Now I remembered, I did same thing 2 years back as Alex said. I needed two weeks look ahead filter on target programme while opening current progamme. In my case Alex idea is the easiest one.

Thanks once again

Alex,

Yes, your idea is quite good and its easy also.
For the global change with targeted dates as a condition I still wish to insist that its possible.
After opening ’Data item’ for writing a condition, select Target data, choose T1ES /T1EF/T2EF/T2EF....,whatever suits to the condition and run..

Am I wrong ?

I had tried this !

I dont think you can use global change with targeted dates as a condition(correct me if I am wrong)

My suggestion is
create a CDI call PF - PS (Normally it is already created)
export your target schedule ES EF
export your current schedule with PF & PS
Replace PF and PS with target ES and EF
Import back to your current schedule

from this date onward you can filter all your plan date (Target) and dont need to use global change

Good Luck

Alex

I tried like this!

First I added a new activity code(say ’tar’) to the current project and then opened Global change, feeded the logic with Target early start/target early finish with respect to duration (if logic is true - add ’tar’ EQ ’F’ else ’blank’)
After running the global change, filtered the activity having ’tar = F’

thanks,
