    Activity Steps

    Activity Steps is one of primavera feature which not used by a lot of primavera users, you can use it as a very important and useful feature.

    It is simply subdivide the activity to steps which can help you to see the progress of this activity by each stop weight and every step progress.

    Also it can be used to assign a lot of steps within the same activity instead of create a lot of activities.

    Example:

    Activity: Reinforced Concrete Work for Slab

    Steps: 1- Slab Shuttering

        2- Steel Fixing

        3- Pouring

        4- Curing

        5- Slab De-shuttering

    Where you can find Steps?

    Activities > Steps
                    “As Shown in the photo below ”


    How to add steps to any activity?

    1. Select your activity
    2. Form Steps tab
    3. Click add
    4. You have to fill step information
    • Step Name
    • Step % Complete “It is percentage refers to step competence percentage ”
    • Step Weight ” It refers to the weight of this step reference to the activity ”

      You can put this weight by 2 ways

    1. Sep Weight : it is a number refers to it is weight
    2. Step Weight Percent : it is percentage refers to it is weight as a percent
    • Completed ” Check box refers to if this step completed or Not yet ”

      As shown in the photo below “we divided Plain Concrete Activity into 4 steps ”

    Step         Shuttering          Casting          Curing         De-Shuttering

    Percentage      50 %         20%     20%             10%
