Viewing the Hierarchy for Activity, Project, and Resource Codes

Codes are heavily used within organizations. In some cases, duplicate codes or code values exist, making it difficult to know which is assigned.  To help solve this problem, P6 8.3 displays the full hierarchical chain for assigned project, activity, and resource codes in the Codes detail window. Previous releases of P6 displayed only the lowest hierarchical level. Displaying the full chain in the detail window can provide useful information without requiring a user to navigate to a codes dictionary to view the hierarchy.

In addition, a new column in the Codes detail window on the Activities page indicates whether an assigned activity code is an EPS-, global-, or project-level code.

To access this feature:

Click the Codes detail window on the EPS or Activities page in the Projects section, or on the Resources tab on the Administration page in the Resources section.
