Manual Activity Sheet Categories
There are three categories of Activity Sheet:
- Duration Based Schedules
- Cost Loaded Schedules
- Resource Loaded Schedules
Duration Based Schedules
The Duration Based Schedules are schedules in which you use P6 to capture only “durations” of the schedules. Users define the CBS structure, Activities, Start / End Dates of Activities, Durations, and so forth, but you do not do Resource Assignments or Cost management in P6.
Cost Loaded Schedules
Users use P6 to capture CBS structure, activities, durations, resource assignments, as well costs.
The Activity Sheet, in this case, receives costs as well as dates that come from P6.
Resource Loaded Schedules
Users use P6 to capture “durations” as well as resource assignments (resource units, resource CBS assignment, resource units spread, actual resources consumed till date, and so on). There are no costs captured within P6. A manual activity Sheet, in this case, can receive all the resource units and calculate costs using P6 data and rates.
