Link Setup

 
One of the options when linking to a Primavera P6 schedule is to link directly to a P6 database. To do so you must first configure a P6 database connection in this page. You can create as many profiles as you wish and designate one as the default. See Schedules Header Toolbar for information about linking schedules.
