Configuring Publication Service Settings for Projects

After enabling automatic publishing or adding a job to publish project data on a scheduled basis, perform the following procedure to configure settings for each individual project in Publication Services. Then, as you work, P6 automatically detects the changes to your project that trigger the publication of its data in the service queue.

To configure Publication Service settings for a project:

1. On the Navigation Menu, expand Projects and click EPS.
2. On the EPS page:
   1. Select a project.
   2. Click Context and select Set Project Preferences.
   3. In the Project Preferences dialog box, select Analytics &Services.
   4. On the Analytics &Services page, in the Publication section:
      • Select the Enable Publication option.
      • Adjust the relative Publication Priority up or down between 1 and 100 with 50 being the default priority value, 1 being the highest priority, and 100 being the lowest.
   5. Click OK.

Tip:

• By default, all projects are enabled for publication. You only need to modify the Enable Publication setting if you want to disable publication for a project or re-enable publication of a previously disabled project.
• Clearing the Enable Publication setting does not delete previously published data. You can delete published project data by selecting Delete Published Data on the Actions menu in the EPS page.
• If you wish to modify publication settings for many projects at one time, you can display the Enable Publication, Last Published On, and Publication Priority fields as columns in your EPS view.
• If you want to publish Baseline data, you must also publish project data for the relevant projects.
