Tips on using this forum..
(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.
Converting .pp (Asta) files to .xer (Oracle Primavera) and importing to P6 - tips
HI
Can anyone provide a list of tips when saving a .pp file as an .xer file and importing to P6. I always get error message in Asta, and when i import to P6, it crashes and forces me to Exit with an error code.
I found an independent list (see below) but wanted to see if anyone knew of more? Our contractor is currently working in Asta and will be migrating to P6 but I need to run a quick analysis of the integrity of the schedule as it stands and want to be sure I'm importing everything I need.
Thanks
Of course (support.elecosoft.com) but more importantly, you can also just give us a call directly and ask!
doesnt Asta have a knowledge base like Oracle does where you can look up the error code to find out what is causing the problem ?
Hi Mike,
What verison of Powerproject are you on? We changed lots of the import/export functions in v15 onwards. Latest helpfile is here: https://help.elecosoft.com/powerproject/english/15.0.02/Content/HTML_Topics/Conceptual/Starting_work/Primavera/Xfer_Primavera.htm
Thanks,
Ben @ Powerproject
Dang - I was hoping for an answer on this question - I am trying to do this today, provide an Asta .pp file that can be uploaded into P6.
