XML to XER Converter for Primavera P6

Convert a P6 XML export into an XER file — free, in your browser, nothing uploaded. Carries the schedule core: projects, WBS, activities, durations, dates and relationships.

Honest limits: this converter carries WBS, activities, durations, dates and relationship logic into a standard 5-day-calendar XER. Costs, resources, codes, UDFs and custom calendars are not converted — after importing, always press F9 and review the schedule in P6. For full fidelity between recent P6 versions, use P6's own XML import.

Why convert XML to XER?

Older P6 versions can't read XML files exported from newer releases, and many analysis tools only accept XER. Converting the schedule core to XER lets you open it anywhere — the XER format has been stable for two decades.

Is my schedule uploaded?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — commercial schedules never leave your device.
