Our latest version of P6-Auditor has a new look and feel making auditing definitions easier and faster to build.
New Features
-
New audits - UDF value, project, activity and code assignments
-
Users can be configured into categories. For example, P6-Internal, Standard, API, or by department, or by whichever criteria is needed. The User Category column is shown in all reports where there is a user column, and it is possible to filter by it.
-
It is possible to configure UDFs and code changes to be reported with the corresponding project, activity or resource record
-
Added the ability to easily limit the range of events retrieved from the server - for example, for the past 5 minutes, 15 minutes, etc.
-
UI changes - the reports are now all shown on the left side of the auditor web application and are grouped by type/subject leaving more space for the reports on the right side of the page
-
The EPS auditing now includes changes made to all records in the PROJWBS table, and it includes a column that shows the type of object that was changed
-
Added the ability to freeze columns. You can freeze 1 to 5 columns and those will always be visible when scrolling.
Enhancements
-
All reports now run faster, and event reports run much faster than before
-
Filters have been improved - when possible, multiple options are shown for the user to select from
-
Reworked the OData implementation on the server, allowing much better control over the columns shown in the client, as well as other improvements
-
Layouts now work properly with audit reports
-
Column order that makes sense across all event reports
-
Profile improvement - the teams of a profile are shown in the profile list and a button that lets you save a profile directly is visible when a profile has changes

A solution for common cases of accidental data deletion in Primavera P6
Accidental deletion of important data is something that happens. Everyone has done it at some point.
In Primavera P6 EPPM, some of the most common cases of accidental data deletion are:
- Deletion of the wrong resource
- Deletion of the wrong project
- Deletion of the wrong WBS node or nodes

In P6 we sometimes discover that an EPS node has gone missing and need to find out what has happened to it. P6-Auditor is a fast and easy way to find out what happened. P6-Auditor reads the data in the P6 audit tables in a spreadsheet format that you can sort and filter.
How do we find what has happened to our EPS?

In P6 we sometimes discover data anomalies that do not make sense and need to find out what happened. Emerald’s P6-Auditor tool provides an easy and quick way to investigate these anomalies. The P6-Auditor reads the data in the P6 audit tables in a spreadsheet format, making these tables much more legible and searchable.
Let’s take a look at how to go about finding what has happened to an activity code that is no longer in our project that once contained values for the activity code.

What the P6-Auditor and a Flight "Black Box" Have in Common
I love watching the TV show Mayday – the forensic work that goes into understanding how and why a plane crashes is fascinating to me. Key in any investigation of what went wrong is recovery of the flight data recorder. This “Black Box” records virtually everything that happens in the control system of the aircraft and enables investigators to understand exactly what went wrong.
We implemented our P6-Auditor for one of our clients a couple of years ago, and a few days after go-live, we got a call from the help desk that users across the organization were reporting that all of their activity code assignments for a particular Global Code had disappeared.
