Hello Everybody,

I have an issue with importing Budgeted Labour units.

In my schedule I have Budgeted Labour units currently defiend in a UDF column. I am trying to export it in Excel and then re-import the values as Budgeted Labour Units.. (I have already assigned a resource to the activities).
However it doesnt work.

Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Thanks

Sue

Hi Susan,

You have two option to perform the Resource Loading:

Export it to Excel with two "Export Type" e.g. Activities & Resource Assignments.

1. Under Activities include the UDF in the Selected Option.
2. Under Resource Assignments include the "Budgeted Units" in the Selected Option.

Or you can perform a Global Change, however your UDF must be under the "Activity Resource Assignments" Fields. and the Parameters should look like this:

Where UDF Title "is not equal" (Blank)
Then Budgeted Labor Units " = " UDF Value

Note: Blank means "No Value" at all.

Otherwise, if it ok for you to send the .xer file to primavera6@live.com and I will fix it for you.

Regards,

Arnold
