AD Problem

0
0

Hi All,

We will be upgrading our AD to a recent version. We have synced our Project Server 2010 with the AD. I had a question that if my AD is migrated to a newer version will my Resource UIDs change or will there be a duplication of the existing users? AS per our AD team, the GUIDs and SSIDs wont change.

Kindly guide.


Cheers, Amit Wairkar

Changing the PWA Homepage

Right now "Resources" is the default homepage for PWA. Does anyone know how to change this so it is "My tasks"

Task Approval Status flowing to next timesheet period

0
0

Hi, here is the explanation:

Task 1 going from April 2016 to May 2016 in timesheets

Resource send progress for all tasks, this changes the status of tasks to PENDING APPROVAL in May 2016 timesheet

Resource goes to June timesheet and finds the status to be showing as Pending approval for all tasks although he has not entered any time in June and also not send progress for all tasks for June 2016.

This seems like a bug. Anyone else seen it.

new online Project doesn't show Tasks for one user

0

My company has a new enterprise license for Office 365 and my boss linked his existing Project 2010 .mpp to the new online Projects Web App (PWA).  He selected 'Project Permissions' rather than the default 'Sharepoint Permissions.'  He then assigned tasks to all his staff based on their new 365 accounts.

Everyone can see their tasks except me.  Actually, I can see my tasks if I go into the individual Project sub-site but the main PWA page 'Tasks' is blank.  Also my 'Projects' view only shows 2 of the 4 projects he's uploaded; I only have assigned-tasks in one of the four and that project is one of those which is missing.

I'm thinking there's something hinky in the 'Project Permissions' of the individual .mpp but I'm not sure where to tell him to look.  He's already spent hours and hours trying (unsuccessfully) to find anything different in the permissions between myself and the other staff.  The only difference we're aware of is the fact that I am also Full Admin for the 365 account, in general.  But wouldn't that grant me full rights to PWA, too?

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions!

Hi All,

 

We created a 3 day test project on the 365 server (Project Server 2016). It hassingle task (task1) and one resource with std. rate $120/hr. Details as below –

Baselining is done for the same dates. On the day 2 of the project, we expect BCWS $960 ($120*8 hrs). However, in task pane, below is observed.

In Project page, however, correct values were shown.

Today, on day 3, however I see both task and project pages showing same values.

Scheduling Always Effects Duration

0
0

I have 2 simple questions, whenever I change the start and finish date on my project pro documents it always shifts the estimated duration in a column to the left. I want them to be completely independent of each other, how do I make this happen?

In addition, I have an estimated duration and an actual duration.  The estimated duration of the task will never change, but when the actual duration exceeds the estimated duration, it bumps the estimated duration up to that total.  For example, when I have a task that has an ED of 20 hrs and the actual duration is 25 hrs, it will force the estimated duration up to 25 hrs.  I want them to be independent.

Thanks!

We work with project server 2010 and Microsoft project 2010.I have an issue.I publish a project on the server successfully. The day after that, the finish variance of some tasks have been disappeared. I have tried re-planning and republishing the project and every single finish variance is displayed but after a day or two the problem shows again. The problem is really bothering.

I would be grateful if anybody could help me.


Project Server Sample Report Assignment Vs Task

0

Hi All,

There is a sample report "Project Overview" which shows the count of task and assignment chart. But the count of task and assignment always same. Even I assigned two or more resources for few tasks but the assignment count is not changing. The assignment always same as task. What could be the issue.


Thanks in advance, Taj

BI reports - can only see sample reports

I use Project Server 2013.

I would like to generate a Resource Usage report using the OLAPPortfolioAnalyzer which is located in the "analytics" section of reports. I am able to see the report in Excel but it doesn't open a template in Excel. That means I cannot drag and drop the fields in the Pivot Table Area. Instead I am restricted to six fields.

It seems as if I am missing a step as this is the case with the other reports. What do I do so that I can select fields from the full list for my pivot table, in order to generate a comprehensive report?

As you can see in the screenshots below, Dominik has calendar exceptions on May 17-20 that appeared out of nowhere. We looked in the base calendar, calendar exceptions and work weeks but we could not find where these are coming from. I also verified the timesheet. Does anyone know what 'Exception resource non-working on calendar' means?

OData feed -- where is Assignment Owner field?

0
0

Hi,

I'm developing a series of reports using Project Online's OData feed with Power Query, Power Pivot and eventually Power BI.  I'm unable to find the Assignment Owner assignment field in any of the POL OData objects.  I was expecting to find a GUID-valued field in the Assignment table but it's not in there. Is the Assignment Owner field available for reporting purposes?

Thanks.

Actual Start and Actual Duration Issues

I am trying to use the actual start and actual duration to track my project hours and dates. When I put in information it seems to stay stuck on that information and I cannot reset it. It keeps the bar there and even when I change the actuals it doesn't seem to forget the original input. Can you help me with this.

sharepoint and active-x control problem

0
0

Hi, I am just experiencing the possibilities of sharepoint. I am trying to set up a simple intranetsite for sharing documents. During my testing I experiencing problems with for instance deleting uploaded documents. Now IE shows a pop up when I hover over the icons in the ribbon. Some icons are grey, even if I activate and select the document I want to edit. I can't delete the document or get the properties. I also gave myself all the possible authorizations... I even added the sharepoint URL to the trusted websites in IE.

Does anybody knows how to handle this situation? When I search the web or look for answers on the microsoft websites it doesn't give a clear how-to-step-by-step answer. It freaks me out cause it is a microsoft product which uses a microsoft browser.

Maybe the solution lies in the sharepoint settings or something I overlooked...

Thanks jEwE
