Add an Activity from the Current Schedule to a Scenario

As your project progresses, new activities may need to be added to the project. These new activities will not automatically appear in existing scenarios. However, if a scenario requires these activities, you can add them from the current schedule to the scenario. This feature enables you to update an existing scenario with new activities without having to create a new scenario that would reflect current progress.

The Get Activities dialog box displays activities that exist in your current schedule but do not exist in the scenario. The activities that you select in the dialog box will be added to your scenario. All of an activity's data will also be added, including dates, durations, units, costs, relationships, resource, role, and scope assignments, risks, stored prior actuals, codes, and configured fields. Activities in the selection with the same ID as activities already in the scenario will not be added.

You can add up to 100 activities from the current schedule to a scenario at one time. You must have the required security privileges to add an activity to a scenario.

To add activities from the current schedule to a scenario:

Navigate to the project Activities page
1. In the object selector, select a project.
2. In the sidebar, hover over  Schedule, and select Activities.
On the Activities page, open a scenario.
Select Actions , and then select Get Activities.
In the Get Activities dialog box, select one or more activities to add to your scenario.
Select Get.
