Cost and work is here least flexible. If total work effort or fixed costs are most important, choose Fixed Units.
Note: Working with Duration Types Duration type options
Duration type determines whether the schedule, resource availability, or cost is most inflexible when calculations are performed to reflect activity progress. Duration type affects update calculations only when resources are assigned to an activity.
Choose a duration type based on which factor is the most important, or least flexible, in planning your project.
If schedule is most important, choose Fixed Duration and Units/Time or Fixed Duration and Units.
If resource availability is most important, choose Fixed Units/Time.
If total work effort or fixed costs are most important, choose Fixed Units.

Add the portlet to the Dashboard.
Note:
* Dashboards are created with up to 12 windows of data called Portlets
* Dashboards build upon those analysis tools and present project and portfolio information in a
way that is easy to set up and use. These dashboards can be customized and assigned so that specific users or groups of users can see the same information when they log into the system. Dashboards can be configured to suit individual needs or literally get everyone on the same page.

In addition to any global profiles that you define, P6 provides two predefined global profiles: Admin Superuser and No Global Privileges.
Reference: Application Level Security

The drop-down list shows the enterprise project structure by dividing project portfolios into two groups: the "Global Portfolios," which span the entire organization, or "User Portfolios," which are important to the individual project manager.

We remove these two specific portlets (Risk, Issues) for the Dashboards which are used by the Project Managers.

Example:

Note the checkboxes to the left-hand side of each project. If you uncheck a box, then that project will be removed from the totals displayed. This will also remove that project from the accompanying portfolio view.

Users might be affected.
Note: The OBS and EPS are interconnected such that the OBS can be used to apply security roles and access all projects below specific EPS elements.

Note: The new schedule checker is a tool that assists planners, project managers and the PMO to ensure project plans are built within the guidelines of industry and organizational best practices. The schedule checker performs a 14-point analysis to ensure that activities and dependencies of the project schedule are following desired standards. The schedule checker adheres to the DCMA 14-point assessment check and produces a report that lists all opportunities for corrective action or improvement when aspects of the project schedule fall outside the quality guidelines. The report includes a summary and detailed sections displaying activities falling outside your configured thresholds.
Note 2: The Schedule Checker can be run against one or multiple projects. You can save the thresholds to run again for the project that is open.
The first thing to do is set up the 14 Configurable User Thresholds. See figure below.

Example of output.
Shown below is the top half of the Schedule Check Summary Report.

Note: Global Activity Codes (but not Project-level or ESP-level) that may be created at any time and applied to any project.

Note: Percent complete
You can also update activity status by entering the completed percentage against it. In the Activity Details screen, you can set the percentage complete for the activity to be one of these three types:
• Duration: It simply calculates the current date versus the start date and planned duration.
• Physical: It requires statusing both resource units (remaining duration or percent complete). This delivers a better representation of progress, but at the cost of requiring greater detail.
• Units: It requires statusing of remaining units. The percent of delivered units compared to planned units drives progress for the activity.

A, G: The Project Notebooks portlet is where all the project level notebook topics
are shown in one location. This is especially helpful if your business process is consistently used to show reasons for delays, reasons for change orders, or other significant project communications.
B: Primavera has functions, including Notebook, that enables you to note information associated with an activity, including the reasons associated for establishing a constraint. Note:
* Notebook topics are predefined categories in P6 that help to organize your project notes.
* The notebook topics in Primavera P6 provide team members with a history of all that happened in the project, whether it was a schedule delay due to rain or the breakdown of equipment.
* Notebooks exist not only for Projects, but also can be added to any EPS, WBS, or activity. So, for example, you could create a notebook that describes the purposes and objectives of each WBS element. These notebooks could then be gathered together in a report, which outlines the project by WBS, using the notebooks as summary paragraphs.

One idea behind Portfolio Analysis in P6 is that it gives you the ability to quickly
make ad-hoc reports. You can quickly change the view and alter what data is displayed and in what form. There are two main kinds of views — scorecards and graphs.
Note: In the context of creating a scorecard: Choosing data to display
There are three areas that you can customize on a scorecard: Columns, Group, and Waterline.
Screenshot (compare to screenshot in the question):

Columns
The columns available are a mixture of Project-level data as well as WBS-level data. You can choose any of these columns on the left-hand side and press the right-arrow to move them to the Selected Columns. On the right-hand side you may re-order the columns by selecting them and using the up and down arrows.
You can choose the default sorting of the data as well. Once on the scorecard screen, you can change the order by simply clicking on the column headers.
The option Show Project Requests determines whether potential projects should also be included in the scorecard.

None

Non-active resources may have left the organization but are not deleted from the system since they may have actual hours. Reference: Field Map for Oracle Primavera

Use a filter to display the most recently created portfolios.

Note: Creating Projects on the Portfolio Analysis Page
Generally, you create projects while working on the EPS page in the Projects section of the application. However, it is also possible to create what-if projects while analyzing portfolios. During the process of evaluating a portfolio, you will often want to capture a new project idea. To create a project on the portfolio analysis page:
1) Click Portfolios.
2) On the Portfolios navigation bar, click Portfolio Analysis.
3) On the Portfolio Analysis page:
a. Make sure you are working with the primary portfolio (at top or left) and not the comparison set for the next steps.
b. In the Scenario list, select a scenario for your analysis.
c. In the View list, select a portfolio view scorecard.
d. In the scorecard, select a row where you want to add a new project.
e. Click Add Project.
4) For the first project you create, if defaults are not already set, the Add Project dialog box appears:
a. Select a default Parent EPS element.
b. Select a default Responsible Manager.
c. Click Select.
5) On the Portfolio Analysis page, click Save. Tip You can change the what-if project\'s Project Status field value on the General detail window of the EPS page. For example, you may later want to change a project from What If to Planned status. Note 2: A portfolio is a collection of projects. Group projects into portfolios so you can easily view data from more than one project at a time.

A:
* Customize a toolbar icon. You can individually customize icons in the module. T
* Rather than customizing existing toolbars, you can create custom toolbars that include only the icons you want to display in groups meaningful to you.
E: Customizing menus
The module provides customizable toolbars that enable you to quickly access all available windows, dialog boxes, and associated functionality.

If you choose to update Primavera activities that fall within a filter and choose to add new activities, only activities that meet that filter’s criteria will be added.

B: Bubble Chart is the most complex and powerful portfolio view.
C: Histograms
Note that this is not a true histogram,
which is a diagram representing a distribution of data. An example of a true histogram would be a chart showing the number of activities completed each month. Histograms in the Portfolio Analysis view are rather a "Relative order of Magnitude" chart presented as an X-Y chart.

B: Project calendars can only be used within a specific project, and can be assigned to activities within the project. A project can also have a default
calendar, which may be either a project calendar or a global calendar.
E: A resource calendar is designed to work for a specific resource. Furthermore, calendars can be assigned to activities and to the resources assigned to that activity.
Note: Calendars describe the time available for project work. A calendar can be defined at three levels: global, project, and resource.

EPS activity codes can be used only in projects that belong to a specified EPS, including its subordinate EPS nodes, if any.
Note:
* An activity code can be designated as one of three types: Global, EPS, or project.
* Activity Codes can be defined through the Administer | Enterprise Data dialog, where they can be set at the Global, EPS, and Project level. Activity codes help to sort, filter, and group activities.
* Some data can be stored either at the enterprise level, or at the project
level. One such example is activity codes. Some activity codes may be enterprise, perhaps CSI codes to identify the type of work. Others, such as the specific floor in a multi-story construction, are particular to one project and meaningless in others.

A: Personal calendars are specific to one resource.
E: Shared calendars are often more useful when many resources are working the same schedule.
