Allocating Resources for only particular recurring days to work

$
0
0

Hello,

I want to assign resource A to project A from an enterprise resource pool that only works Monday and Tuesday recurring.

I then want Resource A to work Wed, Thur, and Friday on other projects.

If I assign a resource calendar to resource A showing Wed, Thur, and Fri as "non working" then that will work for project A, but Wed, Thur, and Fri will not be available to other projects.

Essentially this is like a resource profile/calndar per project.

How would I make this possible, as this is quite a common thing to need to do with resources?

Thanks

Jeff

PWA Site Not Provisioning For New Projects Published via Project Professional

$

OK,

So I've got my custom site provisioning for new projects created via the PWA directly, having eventually worked out that I needed to set the default in both the 'Project Site Provisioning Settings' and 'Enterprise Project Types'.

However, if I create/publish a new project via Project Professional client, the site isnot provisioned at all (not even using the Microsoft default site).

I get the following error:

Your CreateWssSite job failed.  Its current state is FailedNotBlocking.  It was 0% complete.  It entered the queue at 04/20/2012 10:16:32.
To get more information about the job failure, please go to Project Web App.  Select Personal Settings from the left menu.  Then select My Queued Jobs.
The errors returned from the queue are as follows:
 Error ID: 18003
 Error ID: 26000

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?

PWA Capacity Planning view - Add tasks names under Resource Names

$

0

Hello,

the Capacity planning view is great, and gives good info.

However, can it also display info like the "Resource usage" view in Project Professional, so I can see a list of tasks under resources, and the hours per day spent on each task?

The alternative is the Task Detail view, but that shows a GANNT and not a daily breakdown of work.

Thanks

Resource (Assigned To) in Late Tasks View in Project Site

$
0
0

Hello,

We have on Project Online a regular enterprise project (not SharePoint task list).

We published it and a site was created with the Project Summary web-part.

This web-part shows late tasks and this is linkable.

When I click on the link, I get a task list within the Team Site. However, most resources assigned to these tasks in Project are not reflected in the Assigned To column of the list. In fact, only the project owner (which is the site owner) is shown in the Assigned To column on her tasks.

Can you explain this? I think it has something to do with SharePoint rights. We work with Project Server Permission Mode.

Regards,

Barak

Timesheet Customisation in PWA 2010

Hi

Does anybody know if it is possible to add a field showing the project priority onto a resources timesheet in PWA 2010. I have created a field to show the task priority (My Timesheet view) but once I add time to the task on my timesheet and save, the priority field disappears until the project is published again.

Ideally I would like this field to be visible on the My Work view of the timesheet.

Thanks

Mass set timesheet manager on all PWA Users.

In PWA all the users timesheet managers are set as themselves so they auto approve on timesheets. We need to set all the timesheet managers to their manager.  Found that editing the Project User and setting their time sheet manager to their manager does what we need.  Is there anyway to import in from AD directly or could powershell be used to edit PWA users? Thanks

Trying to get to SPI and CPI in MS Project Server 2010 and PWA

$

Hello,

Trying to establish some sense of overall portfolio performance for projects that we're operating, from a schedule perspective. In doing so, I'm pulling SPI values, via PWA views. I've noticed that some projects have a value of 0 for BCWS and BCWP, which results in a value of 0 for SPI.

We have a mixture of situations surrounding resources, that I suspect might be contributing to this. I'm looking for some insight from those who may have already done this.

We have:

  • Contract IT resoruces who have assigned hourly rates (values)
  • Internal IT resources who do not have hourly rates assigned
  • External vendors who are paid 'by the job', and are not associated with individual rates in MS Project Pro

Has anyone else run into this and figured out a way to get reliable SPI values when there are resources whose specific rates/values are not represented in MS Project Pro?

Thank you,

Michael... PMP, PSM-I
