If\nthe Global Activity Code does not exist in your database, P6 creates a new\nGlobal Activity Code with the same name. Over time, your list of Global\nActivity Codes can grow to an unmanageable amount. For this reason, many\nproject specifications prohibit schedule submittals containing Global Activity\nCodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In P6, it is exceedingly\ndifficult to determine which Global Activity Codes are used by which Projects.\nIn Z\u00fcmmer, there is a much more efficient way to determine Global Activity Code\nusage. From the \u201cOther Reports\u201d menu, select \u201cGlobal Activity Code Usage by\nCode\/Project\u201d, then either Preview or Print (See illustration below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To eliminate Global Activity Code usage, open the Projects listed, and then reassign the Global Activity Code to a Project Activity Code. Later you can delete the Global Activity Codes you no longer need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"840\" height=\"364\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foxquestsystems.net\/foxblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/T061-Global-Activity-Code-Bloat-1024x444.jpg?resize=840%2C364\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foxquestsystems.net\/foxblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/T061-Global-Activity-Code-Bloat.jpg?resize=1024%2C444&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foxquestsystems.net\/foxblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/T061-Global-Activity-Code-Bloat.jpg?resize=300%2C130&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foxquestsystems.net\/foxblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/T061-Global-Activity-Code-Bloat.jpg?resize=768%2C333&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foxquestsystems.net\/foxblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/T061-Global-Activity-Code-Bloat.jpg?w=1123&amp;ssl=1 1123w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Copyright \u00a92019 FoxQuest Systems, Inc. &#8211; All Rights Reserved<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those of you who routinely receive and\/or submit P6 schedules, chances are you will eventually wind up with more Global Activity Codes that you can account for.
