Rodel,

Thanks; all have been defined.

For individual resources its fine;

If u have 3 process engrs(PR1,PR2,PR3) at hierarchical level define addnl res as PR*.

Define respective(PR1~3)availabilities & you get PR* availability automatically.

I am still to get these in P6.



Cheers

Hi Dattatreya,



It almost the same as P3 with enhance and added function. In P5/P6 you can define Resource Breakdown Structure (RBS). Assign Roles and Timesheets.



You set resource availability under Unit & Prices Tab.

You can set default Unit/Time, Auto compute actuals and select labor, nonlabor and material under Detail tab.

You can define Driving Resources under Enterprise-> Project-> Resources Tab.



Hope this help,

Rodel

Hi Rodel,



In P3, We define normal & hierarchical resources

we define resource availability (normal/max) thru dates.

But we also get hierarchical resource availability in P3 on the basis of normal resources.

How do we get hierarchical resource availability in P6.



Any thoughts ?



Cheers

Hi Rodel,



Thanks a lot; but I forgot to define hierarchical resources properly.

Dattatreya,



Quick work around is to highlight all resources shown on Current Project Resources window on the bottom left of the screen or right click the said window and select Group & Sort by-> Customise. Tick Show Grand Totals then click Ok. Select Total and that should combine all your resources.



HTH,

Rodel
