Oracle’s Primavera P6 R22.12 has introduced an intriguing feature known as the 'Additional Activities View.' Despite its name, a closer look suggests that 'View Activities Tabs Side-by-Side' might be a more apt description. This guide will walk you through how to leverage this feature for enhanced project management, particularly in efficiently managing a project's current status versus its progress in upcoming reporting periods.
Activating the 'Additional Activities View'
1. Navigate to the 'Activities' Tab: Here is where you'll find detailed project plans and schedules.
2. Within the project tab, locate and select the 'Additional Activities View'
Navigate to the Project tab, select your desired project, and then click on 'Set Default Project'
Utilizing the Feature for Project Analysis
1. Analyze Side-by-Side: With your activities set up for side-by-side viewing, conduct your analysis. Look for discrepancies, potential delays, or areas where resources might be optimized.
2. Strategic Planning and Adjustment: Use the insights gained from the comparative view to make informed decisions on project adjustments, resource reallocation, or timeline changes.
The 'Additional Activities View' feature in Primavera P6 R22.12, despite its potentially misleading name, significantly enhances project management capabilities by allowing a detailed, side-by-side comparison of project activities. By following these steps to customize and analyze project activities, project managers can unlock new efficiencies in managing project progress, forecasting, and strategic planning. This guide aims to empower users to fully exploit this feature, ensuring projects are managed more effectively, with a clearer understanding of current and future project states.
