Create enterprise project structure (EPS) elements to represent the hierarchical positions of all the projects in your database. You can create sibling EPSs to represent those that are hierarchically equal, or child EPSs to represent those that are subordinate.
To create EPS elements:
- Click Projects.
- On the Projects navigation bar, click EPS.
- On the EPS page:
- Select an EPS. The EPS can act as a sibling or a parent.
- Click Row Actions :
- To add a sibling, select Add Sibling EPS.
- To add a child, select Add Child EPS.
- Double-click in the ID field to enter an ID for the new EPS.
- Click Save.
Tips
- To remove all projects and templates from the view, apply the EPS Only standard filter when creating an EPS element. You are then able to easily see where your new EPS fits into the EPS hierarchy as a whole.
- To create an EPS, grouping must be configured to have the Level 1 Field list set to EPS. When filtering is configured to display projects that belong to an EPS, the Hide if empty option is disabled. Data will not display.
- You can only create a new root level EPS if you are logged in to P6 as a user with the Admin Superuser global security profile.
- The application automatically names the new EPS New EPS, New EPS-1, New EPS-2, et cetera.
- You can also right-click an EPS on the table and select Add Child EPS or Add Sibling EPS to create an EPS.
