Primavera Activity ID coding
Example 1:
Let say we are in Procurement Phase and the package is MEG which is part of Long Lead Item
Proposed Activity ID: Proc.LLI.Meg.00010
Example 2:
Let say we are in Engineering Phase and the deliverables is for electrical
Proposed Activity ID: Eng.Elc.00010

4. Here are few more examples for you to enhance your Primavera ID but my
suggestion is to make use of activity code.
