Thank you Michael. On your point about visibility of links between two projects ; if you run a relationships report, and then run an activity report and combine them in powerbi you can get a quick way of highlighting all the logic links between any number of projects. I tend to use a chord diagram for this. I also have a question, as when I have made a baseline of a project and then restore that baseline to make a monthly snapshot, my logic links between projects tend to get duplicated. Is there a way to avoid this?

Hi do you have any Project reference used P6

[@larsm97]

How would you use Reflections for interlinked projects? Is this even possible, as normally you can only create a reflection one project at a time?

[@wendygriffiths982]

Hi Michael, if you link two projects. when you do an update for a following period does the project ID have to be the same or does it look at activity ID only

[@gazrowan]

Do all projects have to have the same schedule settings? Like retained logic? What happens if one project is retained logic and one is actual dates?

[@PlanAcademy]

Projects have their own Schedule settings - saved with the project. So unique settings for each project if you like.

[@gazrowan]

@@PlanAcademy sorry, I meant when creating an IMS. If I have say 4 projects that I need to combine to make an IMS, do they all need to have the same schedule settings? Same DD and same schedule setting (i.e retained logic)

[@julioguzman805]

Hi Michael, nice video. Do you know how to deal with this P6 message: "There are multiple projects open which have conflicting scheduling options. Do you want to schedule all open projects using the scheduling options configured for ....?" ? I guess it is a bug.

Hello, How about importing relationships from two different projects with Excel

[@armandpatry6744]

Hello, Just one question, what about the progress line in case of multi projects ? If the baselines are set at the same date, is it working ? Thank you ! Armand

[@PlanAcademy]

Progress is line is calculated per activity, so it should work when working with multiple projects. There is a setting for it. Right-click in Gantt -> Bar Chart Options -> Progress Line tab. Most popular is to set it to compare current / baseline "Finish Date".

How to create IMS?

[@sajumon3947]

When i import a MS Project XMl file in Primavera P6 18v MS-Project: 1FS +10 Days In other words a relationship which is FS + 5 days in MSP Imports as FS +3000d in P6. Primavera : Lag 4800 - not proper
