Integrations
Primavera P6
Schedule intelligence from the XER your scheduler already exports — no P6 account connection needed.
Overview
The Primavera P6 integration is file-based: Alloovium reads the schedule exports (.xer or P6 .xml) your scheduler already produces and turns them into live schedule intelligence for the project — a snapshot on every update, a clear account of what changed between programs, milestone trends across successive updates, and checks of the schedule against what the site record says is actually happening. There is no P6 account to connect and nothing to install.
File-based — no sign-in
Nothing signs in to your P6 account. Alloovium only reads the schedule exports you choose to share, and your program in P6 is never touched. Read our data handling commitments →Getting a schedule in
Each new export becomes a snapshot on the project's Schedule page. A schedule can land in Alloovium three ways:
Upload it
Drop the .xer or P6 .xml export on the project's Schedule page.
Let it arrive on its own
New .xer files landing in connected Procore or SharePoint folders are picked up automatically.
Email it
Forward the scheduler's export email — the attached .xer is captured automatically.
A project's Schedule page just after an XER lands — the new snapshot at the top of the snapshot list with its data date, and the activity table filling in below.
What you get
- Schedule snapshots from every XER or P6 XML export, kept in order on the Schedule page.
- What changed between updates — dates, logic, and the critical path.
- Milestone trends across successive programs, so slippage shows up as a pattern, not a surprise.
- Site-signal checks against the live schedule — diaries, meetings, and reports that contradict the program get flagged.
Permissions
Nothing signs in to your P6 account. Alloovium only reads the schedule exports you choose to share, and your program in P6 is never touched. Schedule intelligence is project-scoped: it is visible to people with access to that project.
Troubleshooting
An export isn't appearing
Check the file is a .xer or P6 .xml export, and — for automatic capture — that it landed in a folder that is part of a connected Procore or SharePoint sync.
The comparison looks wrong
Snapshots compare in sequence on the Schedule page. Make sure successive exports come from the same program (same project and WBS) — an export of a different program starts its own history.
