Have Problem Listing Open End Activities In Primavera P6

If you want to list up open-end activities in Primavera P6 and you can’t find any option in p6. A simple way is exporting activity relation detail to excel and separate predecessor with only SS successor. But that is a too lengthy process because at times you don’t know what formulas to apply in excel for fast working.  In excel one predecessor can have more than one successor. So you have to select predecessors with fully SS relation successors only.  Download are free to use schedule viewer from www.xerviewer.co.uk . We have a project health check section which provides various checks including ‘ACTIVITIES WITHOUT SUCCESSORS’

There is a checkbox under this section where you can include or exclude activities with SS successors only. You can then export the activities to excel.  Hope this would be of great help for you on your project. You can still contact our experts if you face any ambiguity on provided email addresses globally or contact to the vendor who provided you with the software.

Here are some problems that you might face and we are giving solution to it in advance so that our blogs could be of great help for you. If you use the above mentioned schedule viewer which is, www.xerviewer.co.uk and if it proves to be good there might a problem arise that it shows activities without predecessors or successors. It might not show open end activities. Only showing milestone activities with no successors and predecessors, this might create a lot of confusion or ambiguity. The problem can be, your, not tagging the checkbox. Consider, start to logic as missing.

Done. The other problem can be how to export that list to excel. When you try to export the whole project is exporting. Well that is a big issue but you need not to worry. When all the project activities are exporting including those without successors but you just want to export the list, not the Gantt then what you need to do is after clicking export and the options box comes up, you ought to select ‘expand to level 1’ and deselect the ‘ draw Gantt option’.

 Untitled2

Another problem that can rise is, what can be the formula or any other method for extracting SS relation activities in excel. The solution is using the formula count if (). You could sum up the total number of successors for each activity ID and the subtract the number of SS successors.

Another problem can be with the registration code being invalid there can be multiple reasons of it but one that have been commonly witnessed is moving or copying the existing file if you have copied or moved the file, the new file would need it’s own registration key. For the key that has been generated to you, you must use it for the existing file and not for any have new, moved or copied file.

Earned Value Management

management

Talking about management systems, earned value management is really of major importance. We first need to understand, what exactly is earned value management. It’s importance in our business sectors. And how we need to implement it for best outcomes and results for our business and it’s success.

Earned value management , can also be known as performance management is a worldwide known technique for performance measurement and progress in objective manner. It’s the ability to combine the measurements of three important factors. Scope , schedule and cost. When talking about a single integrated system, performance management or earned value management is usually able to provide accurate forecasts of project performance problems which is an important contribution towards your earned value management system.

The essential features of earned value management system includes:

1. A proper completely designed project plan that identifies work to be accomplished.

2. an evaluation of planned work , which is called planned value (PV) or budgeted cost of work performed (BCWP)

Most

Importantly

3. pre defined ”earning rules” (also known as metrics) to measure or quantify the accomplishment of work. Called earned value (EV) or budgeted cost of work performed(BCWP)

Earned value management implementations for large or complex projects include a number of features such as forecasts and indicators of cost performance (over budget or under budget) and schedule the performance , which may be behind schedule or ahead schedule.

Earned vale management originally emerged in US as a financial analysis in the 1960’s , but has since become a vital part in project management and cost engineering . implementation can be implemented to fit projects of all sizes and complexities. Research investigating the contribution of EVM to project suggests a moderately strong positive relationship.

Primavera earned value management helps organizations better manage project costs, measure earned value  and analyze budget , actual, forecast and performed costs. Without a comprehensive earned value performance, troubled projects can get out of control without the problem being recognized. With primavera earned value management , organizations can generate the statistically accurate estimates needed to understand and communicate project performance while there is still time to deal with  and address the issues.

Main features are:

1. monitor project performance using earned value management techniques.

2. calculate project costs using the direct and indirect costs per source.

3. accurately measure both cost and schedule performance.

4. track the differences between what was budgeted and how it was executed.

5. produce reports that comply with the U.S office management and budget (OMB) 300 directive.

The benefits that can be earned through earned value systems:

1. analyze and communicate the project performance data

2. increase program visibility through different factors like effective and stream lined communication with all stakeholders

3. systematically determine some factors, which may include

-> whether the project is behind the schedule

->ahead of schedule

->under budget

->over budget

This all can be done by analyzing the earned value KPI’s

It can nearly be impossible to build annual budgets that consider forecasted budget and program plans with detailed data of cost management and cost effectiveness. The more challenging part is uniting the actual program costs and actual program scheduled tasks. Oracle’s primavera project management’s earned value system’s gives the best solution in this regard.526
