2. Resource curves in Primavera P6 do not show the percentage progress and monthly increments and this is not good when you look at a curve from a project manager’s perspective.
3. If you want to calculate the manpower for each, in P6 you have to divide all man hours for every month to an exact number (for example 208) but as you know the working hours in each month is different because we have different for each month. Consequently we will not have a perfect estimation of manpower needed for each month in P6 while we can have an exact estimation in Excel.
