Project Name - The project name, which does not have to be unique, can have a maximum of 40 characters.
EPS - The element of the Enterprise Project Structure (EPS) to which the project is assigned.

  1. Click Create.
Once the project is created successfully, you can choose what you want to do next. The options that appear depend on your user interface view.
Tip: Before adding activities, you may want to review the project's current default settings for new activities. You can do this on the Projects > Details > Settings page, if it is included in your user interface view. To access the Settings page, click Project Details on the Projects toolbar, then click Settings.
Note: In order to run the Project Architect, the Oracle Primavera Job Service must be installed. Your P6 Web Access database must be configured to connect to the appropriate Methodology Management database, and an administrative preference must be set. For more information, refer to the Administrator’s Guide or contact your P6 administrator.
