If you are running services and P6 on the same server, you should keep the defaults. If you have scheduling work that needs to be done immediately, you should set the Interval low (for example, 10s) and the Concurrent Threads high. Remember that if the server is actively applying the service, all users will experience delays in the application.
To configure your publication settings:
- Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
