Delimit resource allocation date in activity element

Hi Experts,
This refers to workforce planning. We're using WBS team and allocate few resources at WBS first and then PM allocate the resources to activity element (CMP2) out of that WBS team. After sometime when resource is deallocated from that WBS, we're delimiting the date and want that it should happen on activity element automatically or system should deallocate the resources on activity element also while deallocating from WBS. But its not happeing but after delimiting from WBS, resource is still there at activity element level and we have to do it again to delimit in CMP2. Is there any solution? It will save a lot of time since deallocating hundreds of resources from activity element (CMP2) takes lot of efforts.
Thanks in advance

There is no standard for this - so explore possibilities with development

  • Assign personal resource to the internal activity element with diff. UOM.

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to assign personal resource to the internal processing activity ELEMENT if the unit of measure for the work assigned is different than the unit of measure of the internal processing ACTIVITY.....
    Regards,
    Arunchalam.An

    My activity type UOM and the work UOM are the same.
    I would explain again the scenario,  I have created a internal processing activity and the work UOM is HR as well as the activity type UOM is HR and to that i have assigned an internally processing activity element with work UOM as M3 and the activity type UOM also as M3.
    Now, while i am in CMP2, I am not able to assign the work force to both activity and activity element.  The conflict is the UOM.  Hope now I am clear.

  • Plan cost for activity element

    My internal activity can calculate plan cost from a workcenter properly , but while I append a activity element(internal) and add the same worcenter and data the activity element does not calculate plan cost , but if I confirm the activity element it gives actual cost.
    What possibly be the problem could any one tell me? is there any setting seperately for activity element?

    Hi
    Thanks. I am using CJ20N and then selecting the activity element I am following the path edit>cost>Plan/actual
    When I try to recaulutate the cost by edit>cost>update cost then I get generic error :
    "Object was not costed
    Message no. CK060
    Diagnosis
    The system could not find any entries that are relevant to costing.
    System Response
    The system did not cost the object.
    Procedure
    Check whether the following objects should be flagged as relevant to costing:
    Items in the BOM
    Display BOM
    Operations in the routing
    Control key in the routing
    1. Look at the message log.
    2. Check whether a quantity was specified in the confirmation."
    But while calculate cost for an internal activity it is calculating cost.

  • Resource allocation

    Is it possible to change the partitioning on a 32GB itouch to allocate more room for music or is it fixed?  System has slowed significantly since adding  25 songs from the itunes store.  current  storage is at 13.2GB available with 14.1GB used for music.

    Well, I found the workaround to this issue on
    Primavera knowledge-base (POINT)!
    <br
    />This is reported as a known enhancement request -
    prim12479.
    Primavera suggests
    that all completed & non-active projects should
    have the status 'What-If' only. This is the workaround
    to exclude resource allocation from non-active
    projects.
    If we truly want to
    see the affect of a planned project's load on
    resource(s), we need to choose 'Planned' status for
    that project.

  • Defining resource allocation

    Standard use of the tool would be when it's not clear exactly who is going to be doing a piece of work, use a role allocation - when it IS clear, use the specific resource.
    Is there any way of defining resource allocations a little further to say - 'we think it's going to be Jim, but it's not been agreed yet'
    Resource managers will be using the Web interface for P6 release 6.1 - which AFAIK is not customisable in terms of adding colums to the resource views that are avaialble, so we can't create a user defined code there.
    the problem is quite simple - people not following process and going over resource manager's heads to source their own resource. Presumably we could turn off the ability to assign resources to activiites, but i'd be interested in other options / suggestions, however simple or clever.
    David

    glad i could help. just to be on the safe side.. look up resource security in the application help (desktop/ web clients) for details. quite different from user security profiles for global & project data.
    basicly, resource security restricts user access to a resource node (such as a dept, team, etc) and all resources (individuals) underneath for direct assignment. it is off by default for new users. if you so choose, by activating it (the checkbox) for any/all users without assigning them access to any resource node, they can no longer assign resources onto their project activities (just roles).
    if user discipline is a serious issue, you may want to re-check global profiles and deny certain privileges on global data as well.
    best of luck
    btw, you should really consider upgrading at least to P6v7. i remember even 6.2.1 had a few nice new features and bugs fixed compared to 6.1. not to mention P6v7 (with or without SP1 or 2). as you probably know current version is now 8.1. this is even more relevant for you as web-based collaboration features have picked up pace after 6.1 and you seem to need and use them.

  • How to Use MRS Functionality at Activity Elements Level?

    When we use Multi Resource Scheduling for resources in PS, we specify "Resource planner process" as process variant at the network header and the Resource planner node.
    In the other hand, at the network operation level we are able to choose the same Process variant and the system displays the planner node to start planning; however we cannot do that when using activity elements because the icon to search the Resource planner is gray out.
    How can I use MRS functionality at activity elements level?
    I will appreciate your help.
    Ragards,

    Hi Rafael...
    A question were able to integrate elements activity to MRS?

  • Using Oracle as a resource allocation tool

    Does anyone have any experience of using HRMS to assist in resource allocation etc? (storing skills data and matching it against role profiles etc)

    HRMS enables a competence profile to be stored against each person. Competences can also be stored against Jobs and so the matching of Job to Candidates can take place.

    regards
    suneel.

    Hi Suneel,
    I think this problem remains unanswered.
    The issue behind this problem is, during parellel activation the child jobs acknowledge the parent job about status. If the child job takes long time to read data from active data table, then it times out and fails.
    Check the primary index on Active data table and it should be missing in your case. See the se11 index or db02 missing indexes. That is the reason that causes time out. Rebuild the primary index by asking your basis folks and repeat the activation. It should succeed.
    Thanks,
    Sri.

  • UCCE Pulling Data from Active Directory

    Greetings,
    Is it possible to pull data from Active Directory using caller ANI, and then pass first name, last name, etc... to Finesse through call variables?
    This is for an IT support line of business where callers are internal.
    Either through ICM or CVP Studio application?
    Thanks a lot,
    Mike

    You can write custom element in CVP, A Java class (Standard Action Element) which will connect to your Active Director using standard LDAP protocol and query information based on telephone number.
    then put the data in some variable and pass it back to ICM.
    look at this : http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/jndi/ops/index.html

  • Auto Confirmation of Activity Elements on confirming an Activity

    Hi all,

    plz help,
    Johnson

    Hi Johnson,
    Even I am working on the same scenario.
    The way I handled the scenario is slightly different.
    I havent created them as activity elements as you are aware that there would huge quantum of data.
    In my project, I need to capture labor and material requirements for whole month for all activities.
    So I had created all labor as materials.  I have included them in BOM.  Exploded the BOM thereby genarating hte material and labor requirements.
    Once I get the labor requirements, I have created the same as Serivce PO and created a dummy vendor.  I am doing Service entry but no service acceptance as my scenario doesnt suggest me to capture the actual cost of subcontracting manpower.  They wanna track only Plan Vs Actual.
    Check the report for service entries.  I could able to manage to get Plan Vs actual from different reports.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    I believe this got something to do with the display setting.. After displaying the data, get into the settings menu and look for Layout option --> display --> see if there is any default setting applied.. change this setting to something else.. create a setting with all the columns dragged & dropped.. These are the options you can try..
    If this did not resolve.. please try displaying the data from SE16 transaction and post us the results..
    Thanks,
