In order to analyze the underlying schedule data, SmartPM™ treats schedule constraints as follows:
Primavera P6 XER Constraints
- As Late As Possible - Always ignored
- Finish On - Milestone only imported but converted to a start constraint
- Finish On or After - Milestone only imported and converted to a start constraint
- Finish on or Before - Always ignored
- Mandatory Start - Always included / imported
- Mandatory Finish - Milestone only imported but converted to a start constraint
- Start On - Always included / imported
- Start On or After - Always included / imported
- Start On or Before - Always ignored
- External Dates – Converted to a Start Constraint
MPP Constraints
- Start No Earlier Than - Imported as long as not the same as the data date
- Must Start On - Imported as long as not the same as the data date
- Finish No Earlier Than - Milestone only imported and converted to start constraint
- Must Finish On - Milestone only imported and converted to start constraint
- Manually Scheduled Tasks - SmartPM™ creates a start constraint on the task
