Microsoft Project

TimeTable Visio supports importing schedules that are saved as an XML in the Microsoft Project Schema.

To save or export from Microsoft Project to XML click on File --> Save As --> Browse . --> when prompted choose to Save as Type: XML.

Microsoft Project saves in the appropriate schema by default.

Click Save As and choose the XML Format as your type

Oracle Primavera P6

In Primavera P6, open the project that you want to export, then go to File → Export… → and choose Primavera P6 - XML.

P6 XML format is preferred (by Oracle and by us). We no longer support XER, and the Microsoft Project format (exported from P6) does not meet Microsoft's schema requirements and causes performance issues in TimeTable.

Oracle Primavera Cloud

To export a Oracle Primavera Cloud project, click on the Project Selector in the top left, and then View All Projects, you'll then be shown a table of projects, click on Actions dropdown and select Export P6 XML… command.

The file types that are no longer supported include: .

  • .xer (Oracle no longer supports this format, instead use P6 XML)

  • .mpp or .mpx (instead use Microsoft Project XML)

  • .sp - Synchro

  • .p3 - P3

  • .stx - Suretrack

  • .pp - Asta PowerProject

  • .ppx - Phoenix Project Manager

With the exception of P3 and Suretrak (which were deprecated over 2 decades ago), all of these softwares can export to Microsoft Project XML, which can be imported into TimeTable.

Effective June 2021, we have stopped supporting any formats other than Microsoft Project XML and Primavera XML.

From October 2019 to June 2021, TimeTable supported most formats included in the documentation. Due to many factors, including richness of data, quirks with different formats, performance, and lack of adoption, we've decided to stop supporting these added file types.
