CProject Task Status Completion overriding date fields

When a task status is changed to either 'In Process' or 'Completed', date fields, both Plan and Actual are overridden with system date (Today's date)  SAP note describes this as 'designed' but seems misleading to customers who expect to compare baseline date to actual date.  Any suggestion on alternative solution? BADI?

Hi Dobin,
At the moment the function works as designed. But it is correct that the actual date is set to sy-datum, if you complete the task.
The logic about the plan date, hmm, can be discussed.
A BADI doesn't exists, but a small modification can help.
Please send the OSS mesaage back to SAP

  • Project Pro corrupting task details (% complete, start date, due date) on SharePoint Online

    I think I've found a bug with Project Professional for O365 Client ... or it may be 'intended' behavior that's potentially quite destructive. Sorry for the long post.
    Here's my scenario. I have a 'project site' set up in SPO. I use the richness of Project Pro Client to update tasks in that project, and members of my project team update their tasks using the basic SPO interface through web browser.
    Here's my problem ... two in fact.
    #1 - whenever I open Project Client and access the tasks in the SPO project site, it (Project Client) randomly changes some info about some of the tasks in the project ... at the time the Client OPENS. E.g. % complete, start date, end date are some of the fields
    that are being clobbered by the Client. But only on some tasks, not all. So imagine a task is 100% complete. Open the Client, and it also shows the task 100% complete once all the synchronization with the SPO task list is complete, but now go look on SPO (while
    Client is still open on my laptop), and the task suddenly shows 50% complete. Now close the Client WITH SAVE, and it sets the task back to 100%. But close the client WITHOUT SAVE (remember, we haven't changed anything, so why would I save?), and the task gets
    left at 50% complete in SPO. Same behavior with dates. And again, Client is not doing this with all the tasks in the project, just some of them, and I haven't been able to find the pattern.
    #2 - Project Client, for whatever reason, creates a new version of each task in the project on SPO, even though nothing changed about the task (i.e. no updates to % complete, start date, end date or anything else). I have versioning turned on so that I can
    see the history of each task (i.e. see who changed/updated each task and when). Problem is that the Client is adding a new version each time I run it and access the project, causing old version info to be dropped (because I limit the number of versions to
    20), making it impossible for me to spot legitimate changes to task details among all the 'false' version changes generated by the client.
    I have a test project with just 3 tasks set up on my test site. I'm able to reproduce the behavior above every time (i.e. it's not intermittent).
    Has anyone out there had similar unexpected behavior from the Project Client/SPO project site combination?

  • UWL xml config - coll task status completed when progress = 100%?

    The progress bar shown in the uwlCollaboration iview enables users to click and choose progress = 25,50,75 or 100% for each task. The task's status changes automatically to 'In progress' if 25,50 or 75% is chosen. For 100% I would expect status to change to 'Completed'. This doesn't happen. Status is set to 'Confirmed' even if no final verification step is set for the task. When first set to confirmed the task's status is unchangable and cannot be set to completed.
    I have checked the uwl.collaboration xml config file. The action 'redirectAction5' handles the 100% step, but I cannot find how and where to set how this should correspond to changing progress to completed.
    <Action name="redirectAction5" groupAction="no" handler="UIActionHandler" referenceBundle="menu_progress100" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
          <Properties>
            <Property name="newValue" value="100"/>
            <Property name="actionName" value="progress"/>
            <Property name="display_order_priority" value="uwlExcludeFromPreviewDetail"/>
          </Properties>
        </Action>
    Thanks for any help
    Henning

    Hi Henning,
    My guess is that this is related to the fact that tasks is by default set to "Task Requires Final Approval", you can check this by clicking 'show options' when starting a task.
    When this option is set, the users that starts the task needs to approve it before the task is complete.
    Could this be of help?
    You next question might be how to change this default setting Sorry I do not know, anybody else?

  • BDOC status completely processed: data not getting updated

    Hi Experts
       I'm  downloading BP data from R/3 system to CRM system , data is successfully getting into the CRM system when checking the SMW01 it was showing the status fully processed (status green) ,but data is not getting updated in tables.
    Please let us know what could be the possible reason
    Thanks & regards
    Rajasekhar

    1) First check the data in the BDOC. Check if the partners are really cmoing.
    2) Check if there are any dumps created in ST22. If yes Pls analyze them.
    3) Check the flow defintion for bdoc type BUPA_MAIN. You can check this in SMW01. Check if the actual call to upload the data and  create BP is done.

  • Purchase order status tab(header data) field correction program

    Hi,
    Is there any correction program to correct status tab header details(purchase order - ME23N) ?
    There is a mismatch between order quantity,delivered quantity & still to deliver quantity, I want to correct these data.
    Please respond, if any thing can be done.
    Thanks
    Dipak

    Hi,
    Be careful,
    I have never heard of this being worng, however, sometimes it LOOKS wrong.
    For instance you can have
    ordered 100
    delivered 90
    still to deliver 0
    (Due to the use of the delivery completed indicator)
    You can also have
    Ordered 100
    Delivered 90
    still to deliver 0
    (due to the fact that one of the items was flagged as not GR relevant)
    So you really MUST make sure that the data is incorrect before you consider any action.
    this would be the first time in 17 years that I have ever heard of this data being worng (and that would be across MILLIONS of POs)

  • Tasks get completed but workflow Status shows 'Error Occured' and not 'COmpleted' in Sequential Workflow Visual Studio 2010

    workflow which works properly, the task status gets completed
    When the tasks are 'In Progress' the workflow status also remains "In Progress" but when the task is completed , it shows error Occurred. The following is my code in CompleteTask method.

    I got it working by removing the complete task method and by updating the task in the ontaskchanged event , In that case both the task as well as the workflow gets updated

  • Adf Javascript code to complete an input date field

  • Activity search by Completed status and End Date

    Hi All,
    When i try searching for an activity based on the date on which the status was set to Completed, the system does not show any results. 'Criteria used are Activity Type, Status = Completed, End Date.'
    If i choose an End date = Date on which the status on the Activity was set to Completed, the system does not show correct results. The system only shows those activities where the Activity Status was Open and Completed on the same day. For activities where Open and Completed Status was set on different dates, there are no search results.
    However, with the same criteria set, if i change the End Date = Date when Activity Status was Open, i get the results.
    Is it not possible to search for activities based on Status and End date combination?
    Pls. suggest

    Hi Kansal,
    There is a possibility that the status profile you maintained for the activities has some issues.Please check the Business transaction (which maps system status) that you have mapped with your completed and open staus.It might be that the user staus is set to be open but in the status profile it is accidently mapped to the completed or finished.
    Hope this helps.

  • Task Percent Complete and Actual Dates - RELATE TO STATUS

    Hi,
    We are on PPM 5.0.
    For Project Management (cProjects), we have a requirement whereby task status should not be set to 'Complete' unless:
    1. The Percent Complete is 100%
    2. The Actual Start and Actual Finish dates have been entered.
    Is it possible to realize this?
    Please advise.

    Hi,
    %age completion is independent of the status of the task as per standard SAP PPM 5.0. You'll need to use BADIs in order to meet you requirement.

  • Can a user override the Current Date field?

    I have a simple form with a Current Date field.  Today's date is automatically populated in this field, but I would like to give users the option to enter a different date in the field.  There is a value called "Calculated - User Can Override" but this doesn't appear to work.

    When I first set up this field I used code I found on this forum that went in the 'layout:ready' area.  I've now removed it and used the code I found in your file in 'calculate'. The date field is now functioning properly.
    Thank you.

  • Issue In Task List, When I select any SP13 task item its updating task status to "Completed" automatically

    Hi Guys,
    A strange issue I am facing in SharePoint 2013 task list. When I just select any task its updated the task status automatically to "Completed". When I unselect task its updated task status to "Not Started" automatically. I don't know
    why its happening.

    Hi,
    It is by design in SharePoint 2013, you can quickly mark tasks as complete by clicking the checkbox.
    If you want to select the item, please check the “select” column.

  • Unable to set completion due date on a task in wli 10.3

    In the task plan that I have created I have set the property "Completion Due Date" to 7 days in the properties tab for the step, yet when I view that task that gets created from this in the Worklist User Portal the Completion Due date is still not set.
    I have also tried doing this programatically by doing the following:
    this.StepName.getTaskControl().getTaskData().setCompletionDueDate(this.completionDueDateCal.getTime());
    where completionDueDateCal = current Date + 7, and then view in the Worklist Portal and still no completion due date.
    So far the only success that I have is if I manually set the date while viewing the task in the Worklist User Portal.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am ultimately trying to the task to expire after a set period of time(7 days).
    Thanks
