(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 all.

When i copy a project within the same EPS in P6, the new project turns up with all filters empty (they are there with the filter names, but conditions are empty). All filters I use are under the "user defined" tab.

 

Is this fixable?

Cheers

 

Haakon

You are using a filter criteria that is just applicable to the source project such as activitiy codes under project, etc...

All filters are there with the same name. They are empty, wich means the dont filter anything.

so all the filters that you have made in your user field are gone? is the same layout applied? if not make sure you have the same layout applied otherwise the filters will be different.

When i open the new project, all filters are empty. That means I must re-define every parameter in them to make them work.
