For users of Primavera P6, the major release 18.8 is now available. With enhancements previously only available to Oracle cloud users this is big news.
A huge advantage of the new release is that Oracle has removed the last of the Java applets from Primavera P6 EPPM. The HTML-based pages load faster and do not require additional plug-ins. You will find that some of the HTML pages have the same functionality as before while others have been redesigned.
Below are a few more of the enhancements available with Release 18.8
o Performance Percent Complete Field Based on Labour Units.
o Upload Graphics to the P6 Database to View and Print from Any Location.
o 32-bit Operating Systems not supported. It is recommended you now use 64-bit Operating Systems.
o Import Zipped XER Files.
o Activity Owner Functionality Improvements.
o Choose Whether to Update Actual and Budgeted Units and Costs When Updating Baselines with New Assignments.
o Managing Personally Identifiable Information.
o Prime Lean Task Integration with P6 EPPM.
o Improvements in Offline Working for P6 Professional.
