Primavera P6 offers several activity types that help planners model different kinds of project work. These include Task Dependent activities, Resource Dependent activities, Level of Effort activities, and WBS Summary activities. Each type behaves differently within the scheduling logic and serves a specific purpose in project planning. For example, Level of Effort activities automatically extend based on other activities and are often used for supervision or project management tasks. In this video, we explain each activity type and when it should be used in a professional Primavera schedule.
