About the Book: Project Planning & Control Using Oracle Primavera P6: Version 8.1 This publication is an upgrade of the Project Planning & Control Using Primavera P6 Version 7 and has been written to enable new users to learn the planning and scheduling functions of Primavera Version 8.1. Due to the changes in the menus in this release, it is not possible to make the book backward compatible to earlier versions of the software. Many users will have prior experience with SureTrak, P3, Asta Powerproject or Microsoft Project and the author explains where there are differences in the products' functionality. The author would appreciate any constructive comments on how this publication may be improved. The screen shots for this publication are taken from Primavera Version 8.1. One-, two-, or three-day training courses may be run using this publication and it includes exercises for the students to complete at the end of each chapter. After the course, students may use this publication as a reference book. Instructors' PowerPoint presentations are available from Eastwood Harris web sites. This publication is ideal for people who would like to quickly gain an understanding of how the software operates and explains how the software differs from Primavera P3, SureTrak and Microsoft Project, thus making it ideal for people who wish to convert from these products.
