Project Server 2010 - Different Schedule Dates for Different Users -- Same File

We have an issue regarding users viewing the same schedule, different machines.
The PMs have a schedule that was built in 2007 by the offshore team.  We are running Project Server 2010 corporate, and they the PMs here on site have Project Professional 2010.  Within the last couple of weeks, the PMs have noticed changes in
the dates.
When I open the schedule, I see the expected dates rendered in both PWA and Project Professional.  Both draft and published versions are the same regardless of where the schedule is opened for editing.  There are two PMs managing the schedules. 
One sees what I see--the expected dates.  The other sees differences in dates--months, in fact.  Scheduled end date is 10/22/2013.   When the second PM opens the schedule, he sees a scheduled end date of 2/17/2014.
I advised them that the offshore team needed to upgrade to 2010 due to the differences between 2007 and 2010.  Additionally, and I could be wrong, having the server run in compability mode for so long (the upgrade was done in May 2013), is not ideal. 
(Offshore team has since updated to 2010.)
Any thoughts on what could be causing this issue?  Corrupt version of Professional?  Settings askew?
Thank you,
L.D.

My bad, I didn't know that you were not using Project Server.
Then the file might be corrupted.
Try the
XML export and the
save for sharing method to repair it.
Hope this helps,

  • 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

  • Project Server 2010 SP2 Timesheet Errors

    Hi,
    We use Project Server 2010, SP2 in SEM mode. Users use IE9. Some of our users complaining that while entering timesheet, sometimes "h" for hours is auto populated next to the hours entered in the cell... and sometimes dont appear and then timesheet
    freezes. Anyone have any suggestions when would this happen and any resolutions?
    And some users also get the following error...
    An error occurred when communicating with the server. Check connectivity with your administrator to determine whether further action is necessary", then attempt to approve TimeSheet"
    Please suggest.
    Kishore Dodda

    Let us know what turns up. It certainly looks like you are losing connectivity. The other possibility is that your databases are in need of attention. Ask your SQL DBAs whether they are following best practices for Database management and have a SQL maintenance
    plan running on the Project Server databases.

  • How to set a default date for a custom field of Date type in project server 2010.

    hi,
    can somebody help  me.
    How Can i set the default date for a custom field of date type in project server 2010 ?

    Dear Rohan,
    You can set default value to custom field thru Lookup table. Assign lookup table to custom field and set default value to some lookup value (Note: check the “Choose a value to use as a default when adding new item” checkbox).

  • Unable to launch project schedule in project pro 2010 via the icon in project center on project server 2010

    Unable to launch a project in project pro 2010 via the icon in project server 2010 project center.  Nothing happens.  The pull down "open" menu doesn't do anything either.  Can't open the schedule in project pro in read-only or edit mode.
    This is happens to a handful of project managers.  Can't find a common thread.
    Janice Weaver

    Hi Brian - the latest 'weight on my shoulders' was vacation :) - so just catching up - first day back.  We do have a fix coming in August CU for a problem that sounds very similar - but we would need to see your data to confirm if this is the case
    or not.  So the choices at the moment are to wait until we release the week after next, or open a support incident - but we would likely need assistance from your DBA to either run some queries or get us a copy of the DBs.
    Best regards,
    Brian.

  • How to set Logo Image for each Project Site Seperately in project server 2010.

    Hi,
    I want different logo images to be set for each Project Site of different  project Separately in Project server 2010.
    Scenario is,   we have different Project of different client , each client want different logo for their respective Projects.
    How to accomplish this task?
    Please Help me.
    Thanks

    Hello. Store the logo somewhere accessible, either in a library at the PWA site collection or on the project site, make a note of the URL to the site then navigate to the project site and depending on what logo you want to update you can click Site Actions
    > Site Settings > title and description then update the image URL there. Alternatively, on the homepage of the project site add an image web part then reference the new logo using the URL. Paul

  • Project Server 2010 - Modification date and name of the person who made the last change in the project

    Hello everybody
    I'm with a doubt.
    I got in the business
    environment Project Server 2010 and
    would like to get the publication date,modification
    date and name
    of the person who made
    the last change in
    the project. It is possible
    to doby the native
    resources or is
    there any query in
    SQL Server to perform a
    query of this information.
    Thank you.
    Obrigado por contactar o fórum Microsoft Technet!

    Hi Hezequias,
    You can get the ProjectModifiedDate column in MSP_EPMProject_userView in the Reporting DB where you can
    get the data based on the projectUID. 
    The "last saved" date in the draft DB (be aware that querying in the draft DB is not supported by MS).
    For the "last modified by", I think it is not stored in any place.
    But you can develop custom code upon publishing the project (Event BeforePublish), writing the current
    date and username automatically into a custom enterprise field.
    Hope this helps,

  • Project Server 2010 Resource Assigments - Need a license for every Resource?

    I am trying to determine the requirements for Project Server 2010 licenses.
    In Project Server 2010, I need to add resources to the pool, then assign a resource to a project task.  The task will be maintained/statused through a manager, not the resource.  
    Does that resource need to have a Project Server license even if the resource never accesses Project Server even through PWA?

    Hi JenKranich,
    You need licences only for users that will access
    Project Server data by any means :
    MS Project Pro, Sharepoint sites and/or
    PWA.
    But resources not associated with users are not "real person" accessing data but just informal entity, thus no need for licences for those resources.
    It is important to note that if those resources can access the SharePoint site, since it contains Project Server data (risks, issues, deliverables), then they DO need a licence.
    Hope this helps.

    I did some searching and found that it could be one of 2 things
    1.      
    App Pool security
    2.      
    Custom Master page.
    All the sub-sites seem to work fine, so I went with option 2. I changed the Master page of the root site back to v4.master and everything works fine again.
    So far the only solution I found to allow for using a Custom master page is to modify the web.config as suggested here:
    http://jimecox.wordpress.com/2011/05/03/project-server-2010-changing-master-page/
    My custom master was working fine for the past 6 months, so I’m not sure why I need to make this new update.
    Anyone else run into this recently with another fix? The changes seem to be opening the security on the Project web app a bit or am I wrong?
    Thank you in Advance!

    Looks like I fixed this by changing the Master page back to the OOTB version v4.master here:
    https://<pwa url>/_Layouts/ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx
    Then I navigated to the PWA root site.
    https://<pwa url>/default.aspx
    Finally changed the master page back to my custom one. Error gone!

  • Create a defaut view for the MS Project Server 2010 client

    Dear Forum,
    how can I create a defaut view for the MS Project Server 2010 client?
    I saved a template and set a default view under File -> Options ->Project View. I also did the same in the checked-out enterprise global. If I then close the client and re-open it my default view changes back again to the previous one (not the view
    I set as a default view).
    What explains this behaviour and what can I do? Any hints?
    Thank you very much for your help!

    Scheduler007 --
    The view you selected by clicking File > Options > Project View is the default view for every new project you create from a blank project template.  This is a global option, so setting it from the checked out Enterprise Global file serves no purpose. 
    When you select a view as your default view, you will see that view applied to the blank project that is opened when you launch Microsoft Project 2010, and you will see it applied if you create new blank projects.  If you create enterprise templates for
    people to use in your organization, you should simply apply the view to the template that you want as the default so that users will see this view immediately when they create a new project from the template.  In addition, if you apply a view to an open
    project, close and check in the project, and then reopen the project, you will see the last view applied in that project (as Guillaume correctly points out).
    Beyond this, there is no method possible for the Project Server administrator to specify a default view for the Microsoft Project application used by the project managers in your organization.  This is an option each PM must set.  Hope this helps.

  • How to change the look and feel for Heading of quick launch menu in project server 2010

    could this be possible for just header in quick launch in project server 2010. 

    Hi Rohan
    It does not work this way. You have to use a content editor webpart.

  • How to enable Portfolio Analysis Feature for Project Server 2010?

    Hi,
    We have a Project Server 2010 instance. We now want to Use the Portfolio Analysis on our server. How can we enable the feature on our existing environment without disturbing any current feature that we have ?
    If someone can provide with the detailed steps for the configuration process that will be helpful.
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    The portfolio feature is part of the out of the boxProject Server 2010 solution. Maybe you just have to unhide the links in the quick launch menu. It will not disturb any of your current configuration.
