Dear Colleagues,
I imported a P3 schedule to P3e and I loaded manually each activity’s resources in Mhrs in "Budgeted Units". Before doing that I went to Project Details, Resources Tab and I removed the tick from Drive Activity Dates as I wanted to have all resources non driving. I completed loading and setting up Project resources/schedule and I was surprised to notice that P3e is doing funny things like calculating durations diffrent than the assigned ones, giving negative total floats to activities where predecessors are not critical, giving negative total floats to activities’ summary where each and every activity belonging to this summary level is not critical, etc.
I tried many ways to adjust the schedule and in one time I exported the file to P3 for checking and found out that all resources are driving ones!!!I also removed the primary resources’ assignment from each activity, in the hope of having successful scheduling but in vain. I tried also to change the units/time or changing the calendar but also did not work out...
Did anyone of you Planners face the same problem while reource loading on P3e? What can be the problem and how I can solve it out?
Your assistance and help are highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
J. Daniel
