Hi
Primavera is a scheduling tool, where you plan the project activities, assign resources, may track resources load and update planning.
Oracle Projects is basically an accounting system for costing and billing, which Primavera cannot do. It is integrated with other ERP modules.
Oracle Project Management has many similarities with Primavera, but is lacking the scheduling engine.

Hi,
The Primavera intergration works with the "Standard Intergration" of Oracle 11i & R12.1 with the version of P6, this is the statement was in by the market experts. Even I have not worked on this intergration part of primavera with Oracle. still, I can provide you some search engine links, which could help you in http://www.projectp.com/products/op3.php ; http://www.projectedconsulting.com/index.php/community/blog/2010/04/primavera-and-oracle-projects-integration/

Oracle Projects integration to Primavera

Hi,
We are integrating Oracle Projects to Primavera for a construction client.
We are able to:
- Send project header and wbs information from Oracle Projects to Primavera
- Send activity and resource assignment from Primavera to Oracle
However, when we enter actual efforts and dates in Primavera, we are NOT able to interface this information back to Oracle Projects.
All setups as per 'E15794-01_PIP Integration pack.pdf' document and Project Management User Guide are done.
Has anyone done a Oracle Projects-Primavera integration, or has any clue? Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards
Balaji

Hi Dean and Dina,
Thanks for your answers. Following is the missing info:
- Yes, we are using the AIA PIP
- We are using 'Workplan enabled' projects for integration with a 'Partially Shared Structure'
- In integration options, we are only integrating 'Workplan' with a 'Working Version'
- We are trying to send only progress information from P6 to Oracle Projects, not the time card info
Iniitially, when trying to send progress from P6 to Oracle Projects, we were getting the error - 'You cannot update a published version of the workplan'
However, after checking the following flags, we stopped getting any errors in AIA/middleware and still not getting any data into Oracle Projects:
Projects --> Setup --> Integration settings:
Integrate - Workplan - Send Task - Current Working Version
Integrate - Workplan - Receive Task
Workplan --> setup:
Allow Physical Percent Complete Collection
Allow Physical Percent Complete Overrides
Thanks for your help.

Yes it is. The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. As you correctly state the ANSI standards weren't around when it was initially designed, so the statement is perfectly correct. ;)Ok, in one sense it may be correct but it is a completely misleading statement. Not sure why you think it's misleading.Because there was no ANSI standard, so making it sound like a design choice The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. would suggest to most readers that there was a standard to be compliant to.
Like saying Ford originally did not design their cars to incorporate safety features such as ABS, seat belts and air bags.
The OP asked "why oracle is having different syntaxes for joins than ANSI syntaxes ?" and the answer is that Oracle wasn't initially designed with ANSI compliance, so it has it's old non-ANSI syntax,As shown above, the old syntax was ANSI compliant at the time and to call it non-ANSI is either incorrect or misleading dependent on your point of view.
and since ANSI syntax became the standard it now supports that. And since ANSI switched to a new standard, Oracle had to implement the new standard as well as the previous ANSI standard would be more accurate in my opinion.
Nothing misleading as far as I'm aware in that.I find the whole discussion about ANSI and Oracle's supposed non-compliance, reads like it was Oracle's choice to deviate from the standards, when it was ANSI's bullheaded decisions to pointlessly change standards that left Oracle and other vendors out of compliance, and that was a decision made solely by ANSI.
This is probably the reason ANSI no longer produces SQL standards, the endless syntax fiddling would eventually have made forward left under outer joins a reality.

Compare Oracle Project Management and Primavera

Hi All,
We are using Primavera today and it is not integrated to Oracle.
We are also currently implementing Oracle Projects Management (R12.1.3) and trying to evaluate if Primavera can be replaced by Projects Management. Based upon my little experience with Primavera - I see some advantages of Primavera over Projects Management e.g.
a. Primavera is more user friendly than Oracle Projects Management.
Primavera: easy to create workplan; configurable views; generate reports with gantt charts
b. Primavera has scheduling engine to derive schedules based upon dates/duration/logic while Project Managment does not have it.
c. Gantt charts are better in Primavera than Oracle Projects Management.
Has anyone also done similar kind of analysis and evaluated the need of Primavera integration with Oracle Projects Management? I would appreciate if you can share your inputs.
Thanks,
Nitin

Hi,
I have used both the product. For project management i would suggest to use primavera for the same reason u mentioned.
the only disadvanage in primavera is it is not integrated with ERP.
Now oracle provide a AIA PIP integration package to integrate Primavera with oracle Projects(Limited integration). Use primaver for Project managment and oracle for Project Costing and Billing

Oracle Project Analytics and Primavera

Hello Experts,
I would like to know whether Oracle Project Analytics supports Primavera?
Thanks,
~ Ash

Project Analytics only sources data from Oracle Projects in the eBusiness Suite. So, the only way that you would get planning information from Primavera into Project Analytics out-of-the-box is if you have integrated Primavera with Oracle Projects. Oracle now have a separate Analytics product for Primavera, "Primavera P6 Analytics".

ORACLE PROJECT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT INTEGRATION PACK FOR PRIMAVERA P6 & EBS

Hi,
Where can I get the software ORACLE PROJECT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT INTEGRATION PACK FOR PRIMAVERA P6 and Oracle E-Business Suite?
Suggest me.
Regards,
Mini

It should be possible. However I will suggest you get in touch with your local sales representative for clarifying licensing policy. It may require you to purchase full license of AIA foundation pack and SOA suite.
Oracle is expected to release new PIP solution for P6 and R12. You may want to wait for that. Search the forum and you will find lot of threads with details.

Is Oracle Project Management has all features which Microsoft Project Plan?

Hello Experts,
Customer wanted to start using Oracle Project Management suit completly along with little Microsoft project plan. as of now most of the projects are using microsoft project plan for project management and Oracle Project suit is for Costing and Billing.
But in order to start this initiative, we need to explain the difference which Oracle Project Management can not able to do but Microsoft project plan can. Based on this management will take the decesion.
As per my understanding, Orace Project Management can perform all the tasks except scheduling. As it supports scheduling from third party software like Microsoft project plan / primavera etc.
Rest I think Oracle Project management suit is equally matured to perform all the project management task which Mircosoft project management can perform.
So experts , can you please confirm my understanding and provide me some light on this topic.
Thanks :-)

Hi,
First of all, I would like to know what are the various things you are performing with a Microsoft project plan apart from scheduling the resources to a specific project .
Through Oracle Project Management, you can control the visibility of a resource,assign it to a particular project and control the tracking of the time in various assignments.If that is what you are trying to achieve through Oracle Project Management icnluding the other features it has, you can surely go for it.
Let me know if you have any doubts on it.

Could you explain me, how can i create project in Primavera using BPM 11g

I found an example of workflow here, but I can't repeate it:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/samplecode/primavera-1551981.html
I opened an example in BPM, and found that most of external references are "Web service". Could somebody describe me main steps of creating a Project in Primavera using Workflows or could you give me a link to tutorial.
Thanks a lot for help.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the libxml2.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Reboot and see if all is well
In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "libxml2.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "libxml2.dll" to the location.
5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

Integration Settings in Oracle Projects

Dear All,
We are looking to integrate Oracle 11i with Primavera, The problem is we couldn't find Integration Settings* option in the Oracle project super user responsiblity. Can anyone guide me how to enable this option.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rani
The options should appear after the patches for Ebusiness suite 11.5.10.2 are applied. The below is what the documentation lists as mandatory patches
EBS 11.5.10 CU2 with the following patches:
– Patch 5644830 for Oracle Projects Rollup Patch 4 for Oracle Projects FamilyPack M (11i.PJ_PF.M).
– Patch 3485155 for 11iPJ_PF.M.
– Patch 8979063 for 11I.MRUP4 : Projects AIA Third Party Application Integration Cumulative Checkin.
– Patch 10189818 - EBS:P6:11i.MRUP4: CUMULATIVE CHECKIN FOR AIA 3.1 RELEASE ISSUES.
Specifically 8979063 provides the required options.
If you have applied the patches above then is my interpretation that something has failed.

Esteban

Thanks and Regards

Sachin,
Your information is really helpful, If I am not using Project Management then where to do the "Integration Related" Settings in Project Costing module to send data to primavera. Right now we have done Integration Related settings in Project Management module.

Importing P6 schedule to Oracle Projects

Is there anyone in this forum who has worked on importing Primavera activities to Oracle Projects?
Regards
Hawker
Edited by: HawkerHunter on Aug 18, 2010 9:55 AM

Hello All,
thanks for your replies. We are currently using P6.1 enterprise version. We are currently implementing Oracle EBS Projects suite R12.0.6
We want to implement earned value management system through Oracle Projects.
We have two planning structures. One is the financial structure where we create the budget and also capture the actuals in something called "Cost activities".
Other is the execution structure which is basically done by the project planners in P6 and has a completely different structure as compared to the financial structure.
But for us to calculate the earned value, we need to collect the cost conponents and the performence components in some common structure.
Generally the project planners use their WBS to plan their activities. So we shall use the "Activity Codes" of P6 same as our "Cost Activity" structure and assign it to the Primavera activities so that on doing "Group and Sort" in P6 using these Activity codes, the activities shall get oriented in our desired structure.
So, I would like to know that while importing the primavera activities to the project plan in Oracle Project Management module, are the P6 activities impoprted based on the WBS only or it can be imported in any other order using primavera's activity codes.
Thanks & Regards
Hawker
