API Integration for P6 Version 7
Earlier this month I published an article that incorrectly stated Cobra 5.1 only supported API integration with versions of Primavera P6 up to and including version 6.2.1. This information was out of date. I am very happy to retract that statement and inform you that Cobra 5.1 does indeed support Primavera P6 version 7 and has done so since May of 2011. I’d like to express my sincere apologies to Deltek and any of our readers who might have been affected by this error. I’ve also made some changes to the original blog to reflect the new facts. You can read the original (now amended) article here
This is excellent news for organizations that currently have P6 version 7 installed with Cobra 5.1. Not only do Deltek officially support Primavera P6 version 7, we now have it on very good authority that the version 7 integration API works very well and has no reported issues. I will be getting the opportunity to experience this first hand over the next few weeks as I’m working on an implementation with that exact configuration of tools, so I’ll be posting further supporting blogs in the coming weeks.
Further to all this, Deltek is committed to supporting the integration of Cobra and Primavera P6 in future releases which is, of course, wonderful news.
