Hi Folks:

I installed a Project Server 2013 in small farm (1 Web Front End Server , 1 Application Server and 1 Database Server).

By default the SharePoint Administration central is deployed over Application Server, for this the first PWA site was deployed over Application Server.

Question: I can deploy a second PWA site over Web Front End Server?

Help me please.

Hi,

I login as admin in project web app. I am wondering how to view/edit resources timesheets in my Organization? 

Is there any view in Project Web Access 2013 where I can set the date range and view resources timesheets or edit them like we do in Project Server 2003 "adjust actuals" (Edit) and "View Resource assignments"?

Thank you,

Siva Chaitanya.

Synchronizing data to server

$
0
0

I have searched several different forums and have found this issue recurring over several years. I am encountering the issue as well.

Scenario:

Project checked out in Microsoft Project Professional (replicate issue in both version 2013 and 2016) and made updates.  When clicking the Publish option (either through quick access bar or through File > Publish) the status bar hangs with "Synchronizing data to server...".

The system never returns a successful publish.  The system never returns a successful save.  It just hangs with "Synchronizing data to server..."  Cache has been cleared and the issue still occurs.

When I close out of MSP it asks if I want to check the project back in.  After check in I check the project out again and find the updates that were applied are in fact on the project BUT the successful publish status bar is not returned.

I have a user base that want crisp and clear instructions.  Waiting for File was Published Successfully in the status bar is clear instructions.  If we are not receiving the published successfully status bar then end users are questioning if their updates are published appropriately and questioning the effectiveness of the application itself.

Has anyone else encountered this issue and found resolution?  Should I enter a Service Ticket for research?

Print a View from PWA

$

Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with the "Print" feature on the ribbon in Project Server 2013.

I have a view in PWA with all projects and a number of KPIs. I use the Print feature, and then print to PDF to share this as a report with management. However, I'm noticing recently that when I use this feature, one or two of the projects at the very bottom of my view get cut off when I actually try to print.

For those unfamiliar, clicking the Print button opens a new window which a rendered version of the PWA view, stripping out all the UI and leaving only the grid with the data. On this screen, I see all my projects, but as soon as I send this to a PDF printer (no matter the one, I tried 3), it cuts off the bottom one or two rows of my report.

Any suggestions?

thanks

When to use SharePoint Team Site and when to use Project Server

$
0
0

Hello, we are on SharePoint 2013 SP1 and thus Project Server 2013 SP1 Enterprise Edition.

I came on a few months ago and we are getting Project Server back online and in use.

What do I need to do to get people to use Project Server?  When do we use it?  When is a SharePoint Team Site not good enough and when is Project Server required / recommended / needed?

Is it that you can use Microsoft Project 2013 with it and so you can have it integrate?  Can't you just put that MPP (I think that's the file extension) into a document library and then use it?

I am not trying to argue, just wondering and asking questions.

I'd like to use Project Server more, I just wonder if there are recommendations for it.  Maybe if 10 people are involved, or if it will be planned to be over 6 months, etc.

Are there best practices or recommendations that I might have not found / searched for?

Thank you!

Missing:

- The top bars indicating workflow current stage.

Not sure how to start troubleshooting this issue, workflows are working with no issues

Please, any help is appreciated

Hi,

In 2013 Project Server, I want to view actual effort of all resources. These resources work for different project managers. Hence, I cannot make myself as the timesheet manager for all the resources. But, on a weekly basis, I want to see their actual effort like i do in Project Server 2003. Can you please let me know how to view actual effort of all the resources.

Thank you

Siva Chaitanya.
