![]() ![]() ![]() We’ve written quite a few articles around importing and exporting Primavera P6 xer files to help you. ![]() One way around this is to make a copy of your project and use the Copy Options to pick and choose what pieces to include in the copy. But we don’t have a feature like this yet. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to leave out say cost information, or maybe your personal Activity Codes, or maybe your Notebooks even. I suggest that it would be nice to be able to choose to exclude information during the export process. Primavera P6 Professional just does its thing and exports the project from the database to a file to give you a complete record. On export, there’s no picking what goes into the output file. This makes perfect sense since we need a complete record of the project, all Global bits are included. When you export a project from a database to a Primavera P6 xer file (or xml file), all of the linked Global objects and the embedded Project Data are exported along with the project. The concept of Global and Project Data in Primavera P6 is important to understand not so much from a planning & CPM scheduling perspective, but from the view of wanting to be able to pass a complete record of a project (or perhaps just the essentials) back and forth between users or databases. In this post, I’ll show you how to preview Global Data coming from a Primavera P6 xer file. If you have’t read part 1 yet, go have a read. This post is part 2 of our Scheduler’s Guide to Primavera P6 Global Data and Project Data. ![]()
