[@muhammadazharkhan2052]

Sir your videos is best and so easy to understand.Especially ilike your speaking style, thanks again for your kind effort

[@noufalsm]

Very Useful and informative. I did this one with our Solar Project .Thank you

[@Akintoh25]

liked your video sir!, Great help for someone starting to learn Primavera P6

[@foysalahmed2613]

Yeh agree with you

[@cabsa91]

Thanks Sir was very helpful

[@hariomkumar-qx3yj]

Sir, my one observation, after importing the cost, there is a change in the duration of activities. Please explain that how to avoid the change in duration. you can notice the duration change in loaded vedio also.

[@yannickfechoz7413]

so great, but why the original duration come back to 0, i understand it s because budget is not link with duration, but how do you shift from activities with duration and activities with cost? thanks

[@qobla_worgbah]

Do you create a Column for Budgeted Units or Budgeted Cost?

[@stwin11]

Hi there, great tutorial. Im looking to apply this on my project, however why have all your activity duration (and mine) changed to zero? How would you revert back to the duration specified by the team

[@shokr22]

Me too l am deed now

[@raphaelpetersamat9897]

Have you found the solution? I'm a newbie in P6 by the way, and when i did this to my schedule all the activities duration change to zero. Any chance we can do the importing without affecting the duration?Thanks

[@AdnanAhmed91]

While creating cost resource, You have to make default unit/time as 1. This is the reason.

[@kathiroo29]

very useful to understand cost loading

[@AfzalAli-ue6yn]

Can you explain, what's the different between cost loading from resource standard rate (automatic cost loading using budget units) & the cost loading from BOQ (manual cost loading)

[@mohd180584]

Please creat completed project schedule with resources etc as a demonstration

[@mhammedoukina6717]

Thank you

[@carlodigma5128]

Very interesting and helpful,thanks

[@ravindrankrishnan2964]

Pls put the same for MS Project also ( cost loading and cash flow ). Where BOQ is available with Qty and Rates are also available ( Post Civil works item Rate contracts ). The Rates are per Cum / per Sqm basis...

[@LEARNPROJECTMANAGEMENT]

Good Job

[@ahmadbarham9065]

nice trick and presentation thanks

[@ThinkEasyTV]

Please help! When I assign the resources the original duration is changing to zero. The import with changing start and finish date in excel is also not working!

[@u4umair4u]

Thanks for the great vdos

[@zednanref55]

What is the difference of resources vs expenses in loading cost?

[@gcsindia528]

Excellent

[@michelyoussef5882]

Hello, why the original duration become 0 after importing from excel? Thx

[@jawadshah9813]

While creating Cost Resource, set the "default units/day" to 1/d instead of 0/d.

[@gitano74]

@@jawadshah9813 If you do this the original duration will change proportionally when you add a value for the budget cost

[@Odwa_Mqeke]

As for "nekest" 😎

[@naeemullah7439]

Sir, by adding budgeted cost by this method it will not be possible to calculate the Budgeted labor,non labour, material and expenses cost separately and we can not prepare the Cash flow for separate entities. if there is any method please discuss.

[@osamayasin2466]

Great video, but why didn't u just use the expenses tab instead of adding a dummy resource?

[@carlodigma3048]

Great excellent but how come your budgeted unit / time =0 but for my primavera there is value which is 0.175h/d, only to know how the primavera arrived with it although we can edit it. Thanks

[@Layput]

For those who have upgraded to Primavera P6 R18, you will not be able to export the budget cost. Stick to R8.2 if you want to make your life easier if you wanted to export budget cost.

[@creation_studios]

excellent

[@praveengarg3214]

Budgeted units didn't change. Why?

[@DanRom1962]

brilliant but my version of P6 which I have downloaded from Oracle won't allow me to export/import due to the MS database engine not being installed and I can't get that to work no matter how many times I try!!

[@engr.roheel9525]

I have put all activities cost after exporting to Excel but when I import back to XER file ,cost not shown in Primavera file, although there was no error shown while importing the file to XER....What could be the reason please?

[@PlanningengineerNet]

Be sure that the budget units column was correctly included in the excel file and don't forget to convert number to text. Tell me if it works 😊

[@zaidgour3186]

​@@PlanningengineerNet sir I am facing same problem,I am also your student I have taken your course and asked you same question in cost loading lesson no 8 and e-mail also but you didn't reply,Sir I convert all budgeted unit in text even it is not showing any error but it deleted the activities from project after exporting.

[@pepsibayan]

Hi noticed that the duration of your activities become zero after importing the excel file. what is the remedy

[@PlanningengineerNet]

The steps you are performing in the import and export is not correct.

[@gitano74]

@@PlanningengineerNet The duration has become zero in this video itself

[@VladimirKozomara]

One thing, maybe not important is this " Why do have to go out of P6 and do stuff in excel " .. Why Oracle devs don't make P6 easier cost loadings and more automated ?

[@L0V5-m4o]

i have the same thought

[@inakidb]

Hi, this is not the correct way to uses expenes/budget/etc. you should uses expenses tab. and add budget to expenses.

[@PlanningengineerNet]

Both methods are okay. However, Expenses has some limitations on P6 that is why i don't prefer this method.

[@pepsibayan]

Excellent

[@PlanningengineerNet]

Thanks
