Schedule Integration - Definition
  In general, integration refers to importing, exporting or
  updating data from one system to another
  Schedule integration can be performed a number of
  ways for different business reasons
  Primavera has tools to satisfy some schedule
  integration needs
    Import/Export .MSP format
    Read/write/update MS Excel
    ProjectLink

  The Primavera API allows for development of more
  robust integration solutions
Enterprise Database


 The most simple form of schedule integration requires
 importing multiple schedules to a single database – such
 as Primavera
 Generally done for review only – although Primavera
 ProjectLink can be used for updates if users have access
 Import multiple schedules into an Enterprise Project
 Structure (EPS) to look at summary schedule information
Enterprise Database - Challenges


 Schedule data may come from a variety of sources (MS
 Project, Open Plan, MS Excel) in a myriad of file formats
 (.xls, .mpp, .xer)
 Projects must be replaced with each update
 Inconsistent coding of activities and WBS
 Different levels of detail in each sub-schedule
