Project Online Error - CustomFieldCodeValueAlreadyUsed

Good Day,
We have an issue with a certain project. If the project is opened using the Project Detail PDP, and save we get this error. But there is no way to tell what field is problematic. I have also not come across this issue before. Any advice will be appreciated.

Hi Andre,
Are you able to save and publish this project using MS Project and also see the queue if you encounter any error? 
Is there any lookup table field you are using onto the PDP? Are you able to create a new project without any issues?
Which browser are you using to save the data onto the PDP and have you tried to access the Project Web App from different system?
Cheers, Badal

  • Odata Connection Refresh Error while using excel web app - Project Online 2013

    Hello All,
    I am trying to work with odata reporting on project online 2013. I am not using MS Excel client, I open any of the available default report in excel online. when i try to refresh data connection from data tab. it's giving me an error
    as show below 
    screen..
    I have already enabled "PWA for excel web app refresh" feature.  
    Following the blog instructions and microsoft support, i have tried to grant permission to
    AppId=  00000009-0000-0000-c000-000000000000
    And In the Permission Request XML field, copy and paste the following XML: 
    <AppPermissionRequests>
        <AppPermissionRequest Scope = "http://sharepoint/projectserver/reporting"
    Right="Read">
        </AppPermissionRequest>
        <AppPermissionRequest Scope = "http://sharepoint/content/tenant"
    Right="FullControl">
        </AppPermissionRequest>
    </AppPermissionRequests>
    Now, According to the microsoft, it should show Microsoft.Azure.Azureservices as Title but as per below screen shot it shows Power BI Reporting and Analytics..
    title.<o:p></o:p>
    However, i click on ok button and check that the permission has been granted. i can see Microsoft Power BI reporting and analytics in the app permissions.
    I again go to my BI reporting, open my report in excel online and refresh the data connection and nothing changed. It's giving me the same error.
    I hope that i am able to narrate my problem. Please tell me, What i am missing here...
    sandeep

    Ok, why did manually add / update the permission XML? Do you get this error for new Excel based reports? Test creating a new one, example here:

  • Project Online, editing a user/resource: The User Logon Account always displays an error

    New Project Online account.  I changed the security mode from SharePoint to Project Server but I believe this was happening prior to that change. All resources are selected to be associated to a user account.  This happens in both Resource
    Center and Manage Users.
    Every time I go to edit a resource, the User Authentication section contains the error "Multiple entries matched, please click to resolve.". I am unable to edit the user without first deleting the entry and selecting the same user name again. Only
    one user ever comes up in the dropdown options and it always allows me to then save that resource record.
    Please advise.  I would like to have an answer before I hand this off to the PMO administrator who will be managing resources.

    Hello, this is something I believe Microsoft are aware of so I guess will be resolved soon. This affects all tenants, well all tenants I have seen anyway! Paul

  • Project on demand/click to run not working in Project Online

    Do I need to do anything special to allow the click to run functionality in Project Online to work? Or does it not work for Project Online?
    We have a Project Online trial, but when the users who do not have Project Pro on their desktops, try to select Edit the project in Project Pro, they get an error saying that Project Pro needs to be installed first.
    I would have expected click to run to download it.
    I feel I may be missing something basic here.
    Any advice please?
    Ryan

    Project Online in itself is not sufficient.  You need Project Online with Project Pro for 0365, or another Office 0365 sku that includes Project Pro.
    Assuming you have either of these, then the admin has to assign the Project Pro licence to the user (admin | users and groups)

  • Project Online - Sorry, something went wrong when trying to load PWA

    Hi All
    When trying to load a Project Online instance (a new deployment in this case), we get the 'Sorry, something went wrong' error message.
    I tried to provision another PWA site (PWA2), and the same error occurs.
    Anybody seen this?

    Hello,
    Providing it has provisioned correctly in the SharePoint Site Collection admin page, there isn't a lot you can do other than raise a support ticket via the Office 365 tenant. If these are new blank PWA instances, try switching the permission modes, see if
    that helps.

  • Project Online, Issue with creating projects from EPTs (with workflows)

    Hello, I am using Project Online. I am not able to create a new project based on the "Software Development" EPT. I get following message: Sorry, something went wrong An unexpected error has occurred. TECHNICAL DETAILS Troubleshoot
    issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation. Correlation ID: 29b2b89c-607f-1000-80c2-80bbbb7ff088 Date and Time: 15.09.2014 03:57:25.
    Any ideas what went wrong?
    Thanks in advance,
    Martina

    The reason for this behavior was the following:<o:p></o:p>
    The currency of the PWA settings have been changed.<o:p></o:p>
    Looking into the queue of the EPT we found the following hint:<o:p></o:p>
    Project:<o:p></o:p>
    ProjectCurrencyConflict (23001). Details: id='23001' name='ProjectCurrencyConflict' uid='f1850fb3-c53c-e411-9a1e-00155d58393b'.<o:p></o:p>
    After changing back to settings "Allow projects to be published in various currencies" the workflow works fine.<o:p></o:p>
    Nevertheless this issue is not clear for us why it appears after a currency change in the workflow. Maybe a sleeping bug?<o:p></o:p>

    CR,
        Agree with Hrishi that you should open a service request, and if you can't log into your tenant, then use this URL to log into the administrative portal to log the service request:

    What version of Outlook do you use? I don't think this works for Outlook 2010, I believe it needs to be Outlook 2013.

  • Project Online Workflow not moving forward after approval

    I'm building a custom workflow for a Project Online tenant using SD2013 but something is not working with approvals.
    In SD I create the workflow with very simple actions:
    1. Wait for submit
    2. Create approval task
    3. In stage transition, if task ended with "Approved", move to the next stage, if not, go to "Cancelled" step
    Everything works fine until the approval. I see the task, approve it but then nothing happens. The task appears as "Completed" and "Approved" but the workflow just stays there.
    I had this very same behavior on a couple of deployments in the past with Project Server 2010 in Spanish.
    The tenant created the Project Web App in Spanish as well. Could this be the cause? How can I correct it?
    Thanks in advance.
    Rene Alvarez

    I am also having the same issue.
    The task appears in the list, I approve it, then nothing happens. No error, no feedback, no history list log (I put in a log statement right after the approval task, it never runs), the workflow status page still remains as "Started".
    Any ideas?
    If online is as slow as processing approval actions overnight, then it is simply unusable.

    Hello,
    Unfortunately Project Professional 2010 will not connect to Project Online / Project Server 2013. You will need to use Project Professional 2013 to connect to Project Online / Project Server 2013. Project Pro 2010 will only connect to Project Server 2010.

  • Unable to connect Project Professional (dekstop) 2010 to Project online cloud enviornment

    Greetings!
    I am trying to connect Project professional (2010) local desktop version to the
    Microsoft Project Online (Cloud) PWA hosted by Microsoft -
    so that we can edit a cloud project timeline through the desktop thick client (Pro). I think, cloud is a great interface, however some of the scheduling functionalities are better in MS Project Professional (thick client).

  • Project Online - Projects getting regularly stuck in queue - waiting to be processed

    Hello,
    We have an issue with a client that is using Project Online with around 80 projects and 100 users. However projects are regularly getting stuck in the queue and show "waiting to be processed" when the check-in is failing.
    This is consistently happening and the only way to clear the queue is to cancel the pending jobs.
    Please advise.
    Thanks

    Yep - that's what we did although wasn't entirely a success as they couldn't really identify the root cause.  The problem seemed to be a bottleneck in the processing of projects that remain checked out. Projects seem to take a while to check in. The
    more projects that are in the queue waiting to be checked in the longer the gap between each successful check-in, and there is a point at which project check-in times out, leaving the project in a checked in state.  Projects that are published we noticed
    users are not allowing enough time for the project to save correctly before publishing. and so projects get to 80% checked in state and then publishing fails of course.
    However, not to be outdone, we have now built a utility that will run through every project, check to see whether it needs to be published (compares draft and published projects), then checks it out, updates the project, saves it and publishes it, then
    checks it back in, with a user variable wait time between each operation. That way we can automate the check-in and publishing process with NO errors in the queue and all projects successfully publish and check in OK.  !!  With several hundreds
    of projects (will be thousands) to deal with it works perfectly ! :-)

  • "Unable to Open Project File" - error

    Does anyone know how to resolve an "Unable to Open Project File" - error. I accidentally shut down my computer wrong, although Final Cut wasn't open.

    Welcome to the forums.
    The project file might have gotten corrupted. Look for the AUTOSAVE VAULT (typically in the DOCUMENTS>FINAL CUT PRO DOCUMENTS folder) and open the most recent version. Copy it to your main project folder if it works.
    If not, then try trashing your prefs with FCP Rescue.

  • Custom fields with the same name in Project Online

    Today I discovered something interesting when creating custom fields in Project Online.
    I usually create a certain set of custom fields that are useful to have on both the project and the task level. An example of these is Reportable, which I use to determine which tasks to roll up into reports and also which projects overall to report on.
    So I created a project level custom field called Reportable. No problem.
    I then created a custom field on the task level called Reportable. And the computer said no!
    I then learned that although you could do this in Project Server 2013, you can't in Project Online. You can't have duplicate custom field names, even if they are of different types.
    This has led me to use a naming standard, such as Reportable Task and Reportable Project. But I really don't like that as codes are for computers, not us humans. So I hope this changes in the future, but for now you just need to think about how you approach
    the fields.
    Good luck!

    Hi Ryan,
    I would follow Ben on this..
    Just made a test on a Project 2013 instance on-premise and I cannot create a task ECF and a project ECF with the same name. The same test on a Online instance returns the same result: the ECF names must be unique whatever the entity is.
    Waiting for Ben's confirmation.
    Hope this helps,
