Guys,

What is the best way to copy a bundle of activities from one project to another project?? Is it by copying the WBS from one file to another file is the best practice for Primavera 6?

or export to excel then further import to new file (incl. pred and succ)?

Thanks for your direction sooner

Izam,
If you are using activity codes then it will also copied if activity code is also tick or selected to copy but you need to define activity code on the other projects if not global. You can use Activity Window but group and sort by EPS/WBS or WBS otherwise it won’t allow you to copy.

Rodel,

What happen if I’m using activity codes. Do I still have any chances?

Izam,
Copy from WBS window is the fastest way and best approach. You can include links within WBS copied or including external links if needed.
