Unifier allows you to store summarized data from P6 in the P6 Summary Sheets node.
Refer to the Unifier Earned Value Management User Guide for more details about Activity Sheets and P6 Summary Sheets.
To view the P6 Summary Sheets node in a Project or Shell, User mode, the Project or Shell attribute form must have the Data Element (DE) uuu_int_schedule_type, and you (User) must have the appropriate permissions for accessing the node.
The placement of P6 Summary Sheet node under the Schedule Manager is by default. A User can move P6 Summary Sheet node under other Summary nodes (Example: Cost Manager) if needed.
The P6 Summary Sheets node contains one sheet, or more, that contains “summarized” P6 data:
- Master Summary Sheet
Contains summarized data from the P6 Project and the sheet is linked to the current Project or Shell.
Note: the Master Summary Sheet is not displayed as "Master" in the Master Summary Sheet properties.
- Baseline Summary Sheet
A P6 Project can contain any number of baselines, or not baselines at all. A baseline is a copy of the P6 Project that contains frozen data per Data Date. You can select to bring summarized baseline data from a P6 Project to Unifier, via Gateway. The Baseline Summary Sheets that you bring to Unifier, from a P6 Project, reside in the Master sheet below the P6 Summary Sheets node, in Unifier.
Note: The Baseline Summary Sheet appears as an additional Schedule Sheets node under the Schedule Manager.
Notes:
- When a P6 User enters the actual and progress data in P6 Schedule, the date is displayed as "Progress as of" date in P6 Schedule.
- You cannot create a new P6 Summary Sheet in Unifier, manually. Unifier allows a total of 12 summary sheets to be integrated: 1 current Schedule Summary sheet and 11 Baseline Summary Sheets, or 12 Baseline Summary Sheets.
