Hello everybody,
I have an issue with the update of assignments for many projects.
We have to make some corrections on projects (unactivate tasks). For that, each project was open with Project Pro, the tasks have been unactivated which generate some schedule changes (what was expected). Then the project was saved and published (all tasks have a 'published' status to YES).
And Projects and Users and automatic approval+publish turned on.
The status and the date in the PWA view shows 'published' and 'daydate' which was ok. We did not control every projects and assignments as it seemed to be ok.
But my customers called us and it appears that all the assignments touched by the changes in the projects are not updated.
I saw this proposal http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/projectserver2010general/thread/dace0f66-ce25-406a-b3ea-db26845ea9e7 from Brian Smith.
I tried it, it works. But it is much too heavy to do for all the project (150).
In this post, Brian said "Certainly just changing the Default Assignment Owener will not update any existing tasks or assignments",is it true for all updates for a project ? I mean what are the changes that are "allowed" to update assignments ? I thought a schedule change was enough, but it seems it is not the case.
Many thanks in advance for your advice and help.
Best regards
Anne Renaud
