Project Server 2010 - Build Team from Enterprise Greyed out

I am trying to find out why the Enterprise Resources are greyed out when I try to build an Enterprise Team for a project?
Starting from Project Server, I open a project in Project Pro.  Then go to Resource..Add Resources..Build Enterprise Team.  In the Build Team window, the Enterprise Resources are greyed out and I am unable to add them to be Project Resources.
Any ideas?

David --
To add to the excellent replies from Guillaume, if you are a member of the Project Managers group, you should be able to add resources to your project team (the resources should not be grayed out in the Build Team dialog).  This is assuming, however,
that your Project Server administrator has not edited the default permissions in the Project Managers group or in the My Organization and My Projects categories that are part of the Project Managers group.
Assuming that your Project Server administrator has NOT modified the permissions in the default Project Managers group, the other action that can cause your problem is if you are members of MULTIPLE security Groups, and in at least one of those Groups, your
Project Server administrator has set a Denied value on one, two, or all three of the permissions that Guillaume references in his first post.
So, to echo what Guillaume has told you, your situation is most likely caused by a permissions issue.  That being the cause, your Project Server administrator would need to track down and resolve the source of this issue.  Hope this helps.

  • Project Server 2010 - create a custom enterprise project field for persons (no text, no lookup table...)

    I want to create a custom enterprise project field and would like to use instead of for example a text attribute or a look-up table a field for employees (e.g. project manager) which are coming e.g. from the Active Directory. But when creating this custom
    project field I cannot see such an option. What solution do you suggest as I want to avoid that everybody uses different names and spellings for e.g. the project manager and without having to fill the lookup table with all resources of the company.
    Thank you so much for your help!

  • Unable to save/publish Projects on Project Server 2010() using Project Pro 2007 and 2010

    Hi,
    Recently we have upgraded from Project Server 2007 to 2010 SP-2 (BCM enabled) environment and from last few days we are getting issue with Project Plans where PMs are not able to update Projects means save and publish the Project using MS Project  2010/2007.
    Whenever PMs try to open project using MS Project 2010 SP-2, it gets load successfully but when they hit save and publish no jobs are getting fired up nothing is happening. Only way to get out from MS Project 2010 window is to close the Project window and
    and click discard changes. No error and exception windows are popping out in MS Project 2010, no error/problem/issue clue at all from MS Project 2010.
    But when I try to update this Project plan for very first time using MS Project 2007 Sp-2 then I am getting below error
    for any subsequent save and publish using MS Project 2007-SP2 getting below error
    As an alternative I have tried to open this Project Plan using web and there it is getting opened saved and published successfully from PWA absolutely no issue.
    Also I have saved this Project locally as XML and saved and published it on Server successfully. But after someday again this project got corrupt PMs started getting same problem again
    I have also looked at ULS logs but not getting anything useful there.
    So any guesses why this could happen that can give me pointers to find actual root cause, please let me know.
    Thanks much !!!

    Used below steps to fix the Projects on MSP 2010.
    1) Open corrupted project in MS Project connected to PS 2010 Prod env.
    2) Goto > Resource > Add Resource  > Build Team From Enterprise
    3) Check is there any local resource who has not replaced with corresponding enterprise resource. If yes then replace all those local resources with enterprise resource. If not then move to next step.
    4) Open resource sheet view and sort or filter by local resources.
    5) Then add few columns in resource sheet view like "Windows User Account, Email Address , Base Calendar etc".
    6) Now check has any local resource having enterprise attribute assigned to it, if yes then delete or assign local value as appropriate.
    7) Then GoTo > File > Save & Send > Save as project file > Save for sharing (at local location)
    8) Close project plan window and click "Yes" to save changes.
    9) Restart MS Project 2010 and open your project from local location.
    10) Then Goto > File > Save & Send > "Publish to Project Server". This will open "Import Project Wizard" to validate Resources and Task in Project.
    11) Then in Import Project Wizard window at left hand side click "Map Resource" to validate project resources.
    12) This will "Map Project Resource to Enterprise Resource " check all the resources highlighted with "Red" font and map "Standard" calendar to local resources.
           Note: Don't worry about local resource assigned "Standard calendar" but still highlighted "Red".
    13) Then click "OK" and click on "Continue to step 2" at bottom of "Import Project Wizard".
    14) Make sure you get number of errors 0 in step 2, else click on validate resource and take proper corrective action as explained in step 6.
    15) If you leave at least one resource as a local resource (unmapped to an enterprise resource), you will see the local resource in the Import Resource grid on the right side
    of the Confirm Resources page.         
    Examine the value in the "Import" column (if not able to see this column then insert this as new column) for the local resource . 
    The default value is "Yes", then change the value in the "Import" column
    to "No", else system will import the local resource as an enterprise
    resource.
    16) Then "Continue to step 3, 4 and 5".
    17) Then at Step 5 , Save project to Project Server by clicking "Save as" link.
    18) Then publish the project to update the plan at PWA 2010.

  • Project Server 2010 - Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization limitations

    Greetings again.
    I have a quick question about the limitations of Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization.  Specifically, what has your experience
    been with extremely large numbers of users (10k plus).  Is anyone aware of a
    practical limit of users in your AD group you would recommend when using the
    Schedule Synchronization feature on a nightly or weekly basis?
    There is a caveat to this question however.  The client has decided (perhaps for some misinformed reasons) to allow access for every user, to every
    project site, within their PWA environment.  They’ve selected the View Project Site option within the
    Categories for the Team Members PWA Group for which 90% of their intended users reside.  So when we ran a couple test syncs in DEV with a smaller AD group of about 8,000 users, the sync understandably
    lasted upwards of 18 hours.  Obviously unacceptable for a PROD environment on a nightly basis and not necessarily ideal for a weekly sync either.
    Experience in addition to documents like these, “Best
    practices for managing a large number of resources in Project Server 2010” tell me that we are way over the practical limit of a scheduled resource pool synchronization...IF
    the client really desires that all users access all their sites.  But before I submit my recommendations, I wanted to check with the community just in case others may have found a way to synchronize large numbers of users (10k plus) on a nightly or weekly
    basis, within a reasonable time frame AND allowed all users to access all sites within PWA.
    What do you think?
    As always, thanks for your help.

    Hello Hrishi.
    My delayed response has been due to a large amount of testing we have been performing on this particular topic.  Here is an update, please feel free to provide feedback.
    We went back to testing and spent more time reviewing the documents: 
    Best practices for managing a large number of resources in Project Server 2010 and
    SharePoint Server 2010 capacity management: Software boundaries and limits.  Our team interpreted those documents as saying, 1,000 security
    scopes per site is a recommended limit.  It does not say it’s a hard limit, just a recommended limit.  “When the recommended unique security scope boundaries are exceeded, performance issue can occur.”
    So we decided to perform some tests (31 in total) to try and get a gage of what we are seeing.
    We needed to establish a baseline first.  So we performed a series of 23 Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronizations with various settings in a clean, Out of the Box, environment in order to see some consistent numbers.  Here is it’s summary:
    Our AD group of 8,000 users took about 32 minutes, on average, every time to sync.  The difference between the first sync and last sync differed only by 1-3 minutes.
    Adding 40 project sites increased the average sync time from 32 to 120 minutes.
    Adding 100 users to each of those 40 project sites, did not increase the sync times.
    One setting (identified at this time) reduced the synchronization time.  It was the
    Project Site Permissions check box found within the Project Web App > Server Settings > Project Site Provisioning Settings area.  By deselecting this check box we reduced or synchronization time back to the 32 minute
    average.
    The View Project Site check box within the Project Web App > Server Settings > Manage Groups > Team Members group had no apparent effect on the sync times besides what we had gleaned from the Microsoft documentation.
    Naturally, this left us with a problem.  As I’m sure you know, by deselecting the check box (Project Site Permissions), our project sites are now (figuratively speaking) orphans with no connection to the parent site.  This generates
    a new set of issues.  For example:
    Newly created project sites cannot be accessed by the owner and team members.  They will require someone like the farm admin to come in behind them and add the intended users to the project site along with their required permissions.
    All current and futures sites will no longer have users added via the standard method of building a team and publishing the project, but will have to be added manually.
    You can use the Synchronize option found within Project Web App > Server Settings > Project Sites page, but that kinda defeats the purpose.  It would require constant updating on a per site basis to keep up with
    PM changes.  Not very sensible, but it does work.
    With this baseline information, we moved our tests into our DEV environment which somewhat mimics our PROD environment.  This environment has 352 project sites and we performed 8 tests.  This is where we had some large sync time numbers. 
    Here is the DEV test summary:
    With the Project Site Permissions check box cleared, our AD group of 8,000 users took on average 30 minutes to sync.  This was in line with our baseline times.  With the exception of one test sync that took 99 minutes to complete. 
    That anomaly is acquiescent with what I’ve seen over the years.  Sometimes syncs do some unusual things.
    With the Project Site Permissions check box selected, our AD group of 8,000 users took on average 690 minutes (11.5 hours) to sync.  Unacceptable of course.
    So here’s what we’ve learned when dealing with extremely large numbers of active directory users in your Resource Pool sync:
    We did not see a decrease in subsequent sync times after the initial Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronization as some might expect.
    Our attempt to decrease sync time via the option of removing the View Project Sites was not successful.  (Unless we interpreted Microsoft's document incorrectly.)
    However, our interpretation of the recommended software boundaries and limits of SharePoint Server 2010 as it pertains to security scopes per site at 1,000, appears to be correct.
    Using the option of clearing the Project Site Permissions does produce a reduction in AD sync time, but at a cost segregating your project sites and thus the creation of new processes of maintaining them.
    I’ll remind others that these results are particular to our environments, there may still be exceptions yet to discover.  Others may see numbers contrary to ours.
    The biggest surprise to some members on our team (myself excluded) was that we did not see a reduced sync time after any of our initial syncs.  Some are under the impression that after your initial sync, you should see reduced sync times.  I haven’t
    found that to be the absolute case in all situations, just in some situations.  The reason for this still eludes me.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    I’ll let this sit a bit longer, but if no one disagrees with the results, I think we have our answer:
    The number of project sites directly affects your Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronizations if you are using the
    Project Site Permissions option.  If you plan on synchronizing over 1,000 users
    and you have a large number of project sites, proceed with the knowledge that you may have performance issues and long sync times.
    As always, I’d love to hear from you or others just in case I’m missing something.

  • Delete Enterprise Custom Fields in Project Server 2010

    Hello,
    We have Project Server 2010, SP2, in SEM mode. We recently removed some legacy unused Project Level enterprize custom fields from system, and observed that, the fields are not visible via PWA System Settings, but still see them in Project Pro, Project Information
    dialog and also available as a field that I can add it to a view.
    I have already tried following:
    - Clear the roaming profile (global.mpt) and exit out of Project Pro, and reconnect to Project Server... but still see those fields.
    Any ideas, why we see it, and is there any additional steps we need to perfome to remove from Project Pro?
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Kishore Dodda

    Hello,
    They should have removed automatically. I have seen this before and carried out these steps:

    Fully backup the system before doing this and test on a DEV / Test system first.

  • Cannot edit Enterprise Calendar in Project Server 2010

    I am configuring a new instance of Project Server 2010, have full administrator rights, and have run into a problem with the Standard Enterprise Calendar. If I try to edit it from PWA, after about 30", I get the "Unknown Error" Message, whether I actually
    open the "Change Working time" screen in Project Pro or not. If I do get there, whether I start in PWA or in Project Pro, I cannot enter any exceptions to the calendar.
    I have looked at solutions to similar issues here in the forum and they do not solve my problems. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Jeff

    jcu123,
    I have the exact same problem, it seemed to coincide with the installation of December CU; was this the same for you?
    I am a user in the Administrators group which certainly has permissions to change Enterprise calendars. I went in my user settings and happened to change the value of some unrelated ECF's and it somehow started working again.
    I tried similar changes in my QA environment but it still has the error there, so I cannot tell you really how to resolve it, but perhaps try some user changes and saving.

  • Bulk Project Site option isn't working in project server 2010 migrated from PS 2007.

    Hi,
    I am doing a test migration from epm 2007 to epm 2013. 
    So first, i need to migrate the project server 2007 to project server 2010. i have 2 separate environments for EPM 2007 and EPM 2010).
    there is no problem in migration process and i successfully migrate entire PWA 2007 to 2010, except Workspaces (Project sites).
    Bulk project site option is not helping. I have tried 4-5 times with different PWA 2007 databases (PWA1, PWA2...) but this option did not work. and errors in queue are WSSWebDoesNotExist(16405) and GeneralQueueJobFailed(26000).
    Then next time while migrating all over again i kept the same port and same PWA name then bulk project site option worked.
    Question is, Do i need to keep the same PWA name and same port for the new upgraded PWA??,  one more issue regarding this is that if don't keep the same PWA name and i open the project site and click on the "Project web app" back link, it
    redirects me to old PWA site which doesn't exist and give me page not found error (Obviously).
    Below, you can see the both scenarios.
    my previous PWA 2007 site, say  - http://epm2007:2222/PWA
    When  -  migrated PWA 2010 site, say  - http://epm2010:3000/NewPWA    (Bulk project site update just doesn't work)
    When -  migrated PWA 2010 site, say  - http://epm2010:2222/PWA    (Bulk project site update worked)
    Whats the solution of this problem. is there any utility or query to link all project sites correctly?
    Will i face the same problem while migrating PS 2010 to PS 2013??
    Thank you.
    sandeep

    Hi,
    I would say it is easier to keep the same PWA name between 2007 and 2010 (no need to have the same port).
    If you want to move to a new PWA URL maybe you can use stsadm backup/restore as detailed in this article?

  • Project Server 2013 reporting database change in Schema from Project Server 2010

    I have a current Project Server 2010 implementation, I am planning to migrate to Project Online.
    We have Customized Reports that consume from the PS 2010 Reporting DB.
    Are there differences in the Reporting DB schema  between PS 2010 and Project Online?
    My Question is: if we migrated to Project Online, will the reports crash?
    Another question is that, is PS 2013 Reporting DB schema the same as Project Online?

    Hi Atia,
    IN project server 2013 we have only one database instead of 4, it means draft, archive, published and reporting with in one database.Project Server 2013 reporting database schema tool that can be downloaded.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/project_programmability/archive/2013/01/28/project-server-2013-reporting-database-rdb-schema-reference.aspx
    There are differences in reporting of on-premises vs. Project Online
    The Project Server 2013 reporting schema includes three new tables, 27 new views, and a total of 33 tables and views that include new fields.
    Answer-1 : Yes there are some differences between PS 2010 and project Online.
    Answer-2 : Reports will crash as In Project Online you have to use ODATA to create report. You can not query project online data for reporting directly you have to have use ODATA. 
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj163015.aspx
    Answer-3 : NO, PS 2013 Schema and Project online Schema is different.

  • How to query Process Status from database in Project Server 2010

    Hello All,
    I am using Project Server 2010. 
    I need to query Process Status  from SQL. 
    where can I find Process Status in Database. 
    Thanks,
    Rohit

    Hi Rohit,
    you will not be able to find this information in reporting DB - the only database queries are supported.
    If you really want to go for an unsupported solution, you should be able to find related tables and how to join them in stored proc "MSP_WEB_SP_QRY_Statusing_ReadStatus" in published database.

  • Replication of Project Server 2010 databases from Production to Development

    HI
    We have One Production, One Development and One QA server but the Production data is not matching with the Dev and QA.
    Now our client is asking is there any possibility that we can copy the production data bases and replicate in the Dev and QA.
    Is there any auto sync method where the production data updates will be updated in Dev and QA automatically.
    Our environment is Project Server 2010  4 PWA data bases and 1 config data base and 1 config data base for project sites.
    Please suggest a best possible way to solve this issue as i thought to take the the PWA back up frm central admin along with the 4 db back up from pwa--- 6 db back up from sql server---- restore all of them in the Dev and QA---i don't think it is the right
    approach.
    Thanks
    Geetha
    Geeth If you feel that the answer which i gave you is Helpful please select it as Answer/helpful.

    As per your First post you only want to update the data of DB on regular basis. 
    Now you are talking about back up restore Please be clear what you want . 
    If you have all the configuration ready on qa and dev then only replication need to be done. 
    can i use the replication mechanism for all the 5 databases in PS 2010 at time won't be a problem right
    ?  YES
    other wise 
    If i want to copy the PWA configuration part can i use play book or any other steps i need to perform.
    YES
    We have some workflows on PWA instance. Create workflow on Dev and QA

  • Problem with the% deviation from Project Server 2010 field

    hello
    I have a problem with the% deviation from Project Server 2010 field.
    Within a file or project, this project contains tasks.
    Each task has completed the field% deviation.
    Within the row "Summary" in the field of% deviation does not perform the sum of all fields of tasks.
    Only occurs on certain projects, these projects have the view of PR Progress Report
    Anyone know happens?
    thank you very much

    Hi
    Sorry, I'll be more specific now.
    Within the field% deviation. Your settings in PWA is:
    The formula for field% Deviation:
    Str (IIf ([Job baseline] = 0; IIf ([Working] = 0, 0, 100); IIf ([Working] = 0; -100; Int (100 * ([Job] - [Work Online base]) / [Working baseline])))) + "%"
    Under the heading rows Calculation Summary:
    > Use formula.
    Within the field Allocation Calculation of rows:
    > It is labeled the "Apply unless you manually specify".
    The field [Job] and field [Job baseline] are fields Pack project server.
    The error is in project, in the list of tasks.
    In the top row, this row summary makes the sum of the ranks of the tasks of the file.
    But in my case only in the summary field the same value appears in the tasks.
    In all the cells in column% deviation appears the same value.
    I hope it helps.
    thank you very much

  • Problem: Task completion sync back from Exchange 2010 to Project Server 2010

    I have new installation of PS 2010 and Exchange 2010 (one server holds all roles including CAS).
    For sync between PS and EX 2010, I following the technet article Configure Project Server 2010 to work with Exchange Server 2010 at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff468700%28office.14%29.aspx (yes I read the second part on Impersonation, too).
    Basically I followed the video and opted for "Impersonation for all users".
    I got tasks appear in resources outlook "Tasks" folder no problem. They appeared instantly after project is published. But when the resource update the completion in outlook, it failed to update the Project server.
    The applog on Exchange server has the following events:
    A notification for subscription [IABmaWxiZXJ0Lm1zYy5hbHR1cmFzYW5hbHl0aWNzLmNvbRAAAABpsVspLo+TSpth0iMukr+TjiFq73wS0Qg=] against endpoint [http://MyPSserver/PWA/_vti_bin/PSI/ExchangeSync.asmx] couldn't be sent. (Send attempts: 2) Details: WebException:
