How to modify Activity ID Suffix in Primavera P6

In Primavera we can use ‘Renumbering Activity ID” function to modify Activity ID Prefix. How about we want to modify Suffix.

I will show you how.

We have a simple project with default activity ID like this

First we go to Tool -> Global Change

Click on New button

In “Then” section:

  • In Parameter select “Activity ID”
  • In Parameter/Value select “Activity ID”
  • In Operator select “&”
  • In Parameter/Value select “Custom”

3

Then enter the Suffix you want to add. For example “FDN”

4

Click on “Change” button.

P6 will show you a preview of the change. Click on “Commit Changes” button.

Now you can see there is “FDN” letter in your Activity ID.

  1. I use ‘user_text’ field as a variable then export Activities to Excel spreadsheet. Then build new activity ID’s in ‘user_text’ and import back into P6. Now global change saying: activity ID = user_text
