Split Activity Work Using Suspend and Resume Dates

Capture work interruptions in Oracle Primavera Cloud by using suspend and resume dates to split activity work. Suspend and resume dates show when activity work pauses and continues, while the work remains on the same activity. This feature works like splitting activities in P6.

Note The Suspend Date and Resume Date columns must appear in the Activities table before you can view or update those values.

To split activity work using suspend and resume dates:

  1. Navigate to the Activities page
  2. Add the suspend and resume date columns to a view on the Activities page:
    1. Select Settings to open the Manage Views panel.
    2. In the Manage Views panel, select the Columns tab.
    3. In the Available Columns section, select Suspend Date and Resume Date, and then select > Add column to Selected Columns to add them to the Selected Columns section.
  3. Select Apply. When selected, you are returned to the grid. The grid displays any changes you have made; however, those changes are not saved. To save the view select Save in the View list.
  4. Adjust the Activities table to display the Suspend Date and Resume Date columns where convenient. See Configure the Table from the List Page.
  5. In the Activities table, select the activity that you want to split.
  6. In the Suspend Date field, enter the date when work stops.
  7. In the Resume Date field, enter the date when work starts again.
  8. Confirm that the activity dates accurately reflect the planned work interruption.
