Project Roadmap Tasks

Hi,
Is it possible to create tasks in project roadmap? Like transaction type 1003?
Or how can we manage task in Solution Manager Project Management
Best regards

Hello Sercan Özkan,
I don't know the use of transaction type 1003 (Tasks), but Change Request Management works with taks-lists.
You might have a look at the use of cProject and its link to change request:

How to assign project specific task with the newly created projects ?

Hi All,
I need help. I need to assign project specific tasks (which i will be taking from staging table) other than the default task which are assigned during project creation. How do I proceed with this within same package. I am attaching the code of my package below...
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE body xxpa_proj_conv_pkg as
PROCEDURE xxpa_create_project_proc(O_ERRBUF OUT VARCHAR2,O_RETCODE OUT VARCHAR2)

Are you not storing the project number in the staging table designed for storing the task data? You can use create_project API to create the project and tasks at the same time with one single call. You may want to try that option

Project and task on Internal requisition from ASCP

Hi Team,
We have an organization Project enabled. Sale and the Planning suggest the Planned order (of the nature internal requisition). When Planned order is released Internal requisition distribution is not pulling the project and task information.
Can any one help?

Hi Veekam,
Let me get clarity------You are releasing the requisition from Workbench of item that is hard pegged in your( Shipping)organisation.
you can see a project no and task assign to the planned order
You do not want the project no and task to follow to supplying organisation , but only IR should carry the PJ no and task.
I fail to understand if you do not want the Project no and Task to flow on ISO, then what is a use of Flowing with IR
Because if it flows with IR automatically it will appear in ISO as well.
You will have to also check whether the item is also hard pegged in supplying Org in that case only PJ no and task will flow to that org
IR/ISO relation is permanent whatever information IR will carry you will see same in ISO

Show Project and Task name in Time entry

Hi,
Is there any possibilty to change the layout of the Time entry so I can view the Project and Task name?
Via OA Framework, Timecard styles etc....

Folks,
I have displayed project name on TIMECARD using below mentioned code
# Project Name on the timecard matrix
BEGIN HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS "Projects Alternate Timecard Layout 100 - Project Name"

QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE27 = "Attribute20"
QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE28 = "PROJECTNAME"
#QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE30 = "N"
END HXC_LAYOUT_COMP_QUALIFIERS
END HXC_LAYOUT_COMPONENTS
and it involved changing QALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE6 of Project name LOV also:
QUALIFIER_ATTRIBUTE6 = "HxcCuiProjectNumber|PROJECT-DISPLAY|CRITERIA|N|HxcCuiProjectId|PROJECT|RESULT|N|HxcCuiProjectNumber|PROJECT-DISPLAY|RESULT|N|HxcCuiProjectName|PROJECTNAME|RESULT|N"
But now for all old timecards we see the project name feild, but its blank.....I am just curious that if this functionality is implemented somewhere before, then someone might have answer to my question
Thanks in advance

CProject evaluation table: How to get project-related task confirmation

Hi everybody.
I'm working on cproject and this is my problem:
In my report i can get details related to an assigned project (i know Project guid) in this way:
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUS2172_GET_DETAIL'
    EXPORTING
      project_definition_guid      = project_guid
    IMPORTING
      es_project_definition_detail = es_project_definition_detail
    TABLES
      et_name                      = et_name
      et_status                    = et_status
      return                       = return.
This bapi let me know the total confirmation status of my project ( this value is contained in the ACT_WORK_EFFORT of the standard data base table DPR_PROJECT ).
I would like also to get the confirmation status of each task related to this project ......
i think that these values are contained in the field ACT_WORK_EFFORT of the table DPR_TASK .... but i'm not able to select all and only tasks related to a single progect ....
Thanks,
FG

Ok! found the right sequence of BAPI !

Tracking the project at Task Summary level

I want to plan the Project detailed, but because the fact that resources often do not return actual work at the right tasks, I just want to enter the actual work at the summary Level. I do know that they are working in the right area, but not on a specific
task. I can update the actual work, but if the tasks belonging to the summary task finished in a less work I am not able to update that. Then MSP will copy work into actual work. It seems that work and remaining work is locked. Is there any way that I can
track my Project this way? For information, all tasks are fix duration. I need the right numbers to make a proper "earned work" report. Not cost, but work. (we do not use cost in Our Project plans) Somebody that have a good idea for me?
Thanks, Knut fr

Knut,
When you say that "resources often do not return actual work at the right tasks", probably the update strategy for your plan should be revised or the decomposition of workpackages into activities in your schedule. Today you are updating assignments
(actual and remaining work) so you have to use the Resource Usage or Task Usage view to do the updates using the assignment approach. Apply the work table in these views and include Baseline Work and Actual Work in the timesheet. Ok, fixed duration is the
right type at this moment of the project.
As Dale said, never update the summary task! The summary task, as the name already says, consolidates the data you provided in the activities.

OTL Approvals routing based on the project and task type

We are implementing OTL with Projects in our system.
We have about 200 projects each with a different project manager. The requirement is to route billable tasks to project managers and non billable tasks to HR Supervisor. Employees may enter time for both billable and non-billable tasks in the same timecard.
I tried using fast formula approval style, but it does not split the timecard data based on the chosen project - task. All the time entries are sent to the same approver.
I tried using 2 time categories(using 2 user defined valuesets). However it seems ELA will not work when have different project managers for projects in the same time category.
Please suggest a way to implement approvals for this requirement

The best approach here would be a custom Workflow.

Sharepoint 2013, MS Project 2013 - Task List not updating when the project file is changed

Hi
I have created a SharePoint task list and timeline from a MS Project 2013 file on my PC. I have then created a new Project file from that task list which then places the new project file in the site asset folder and provides me with a synced copy. I now
only use the SharePoint copy of the project file in my MS Project as any change I make to the project file should be reflected in the Task list and vice-versa
However if I add some tasks into the middle of the project with MS project, the SharePoint Task list is not updated to show these additional tasks. If I open the SharePoint task list with MS Project - from the task list toolbar - the project file shows the
added tasks.....so the MS Project file in the site asset folder is correct but the tasks in the SharePoint task list is not being updated
Anyone seen this before ?
Thanks
Geoff

Hi Esben,
According to your description, the error occurred when opening the task list with the content approval enabled in Project.
Per my knowledge, when we enable the content approval for the task list, the field named Approval Status which is required will be created in the list.
However, if a project plan doesn’t contain a field that is required in SharePoint, the plan won’t sync.
The error occurs because of the required field Approval Status when the content approval is enabled in the task list, so we need to add the required field as a custom field in Project.
More information:
Sync with a SharePoint tasks list:

Project Server 2013: Project progress task available to only assigned resources.

I have a project in project server 2013. In that I am preparing the project plan. Now I want that only the respective person to whom I have assigned the task can modify the % complete. Not even the owner can edit it.
Shruti Vyas

Project owner can modify the the plan either from PWA or from MPP.
As far as % complete is concerned for assignment only Resource who will be assigned to the task can fill the actual for the task either from Task page or from Timesheet page if Single Entry Mode is enabled. No one else can fill the actual for the task from
Timesheet page and task page. AS assignment will be available to the only that resource who is assigned to the task.
But Project owner can do the modify the project plan any time either from MPP or from PWA you can not restrict him/her. But as far as % complete is concerned do the setting
To prevent the project manager from updating a team member's actual time worked, select the Only allow task updates via Tasks and Timesheets check box. it will be
available on server setting --> Task setting and display

MS Project Critical Task Progress

I am using the Tracking gantt view... I have determined the critical path as well of the project. These tasks are highlighted in red.
I am currently updating a task that is critical to be 100% complete ...
However it's turning it green... when it is 100% percent complete I want it to show that this is a 100% complete critical task (in red color) ..
I have made changes in the bar style.. Am I doing something wrong?

In addition to the excellent answer from Dale, if you want to still color in red "complete critical tasks" (that sounds like a non-sense, sorry for that...), assuming that the total slack is the right criteria for critical task:
you could create a custom flag based on the total slack equal to 0
then create a new red bar style based on this flag
Doing this, tasks that used to be critical but that are now completed (thus considered by Project as non-critical anymore) will still have the "critical" bar style.
Hope this helps.
