Project Management

Primavera Schedule Format and Grouping
Published 11 October 2020

How do you issue your Primavera schedule to the project management team? If they aren't reviewing it, you aren't communicating.

How it Works

Watch this demonstration (the video) to see how you can transform static data into a navigable, user-friendly schedule format that your management team will actually use.

New Version Released!

The latest update allows for customised formatting and coloring for up to 12 levels. Ensure clarity even in the most complex project schedules. Download it now. It may not be free for long time!

Levels Color Interface

The "Silent" Feedback Loop

Planners often issue schedules in PDF or standard Excel formats. The result? The management team rarely provides meaningful feedback.

Standard exports are notoriously difficult to navigate without the ability to expand/collapse WBS levels.

The Solution: P6 Simulation

Use our Schedule Format and Grouping tool to simulate the P6 environment in Excel.

Bilal, if you protect entire sheet, then the the Macros will not work. So, protect only the the columns that you have data. Then it should work.

Hi Lara, It might not work on the company's laptop because of the limited access to run the macros. Please try to use it on your personal laptop. if it does not work then let us know.

Hi Ozman, make sure the Activity ID and Activity name are in column A and B.Then it will work for 8 levels.
