Project Server 2013 SSRS with Project Site

Hi All,
We are using Project Server 2013. We have developed a SSRS report by accessing Project Site lists. It was working fine for some time, now when we try to access the report it is showing loading. The data source itself is not working, we used http://<servername>/PWA
as URL for the data source . The reports developed without Project Site list are working fine.
After 5 to 10 minutes it is showing the below error.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for dataset 'dtRisk'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
An error occurred when accessing the specified SharePoint list. The connection string might not be valid. Verify that the connection string is correct. (rsSPDataProviderError)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
When we try to test the datasource connecting string, after 5 minutes showing the below error.
An error occurred when accessing the specified SharePoint list. The connection string might not be valid. Verify that the connection string is correct. (rsSPDataProviderError) Get Online Help For more information about this error navigate to the report server

Below connection setings
Thanks in advance , Taj

Hi Taj,
Your list is in PWA? is a global list?, if not, try to make a connection with http://server/PWA/SiteProject may this can resolve, because when you do some DS with a SPList, your need to stablish that connection directly at site path where you have the list.
I hope this help

Project Server 2013 SSRS reports by logged in user group

Hi All,
We are using project server 2013. We have developed SSRS report. We need to display the projects based on the logged in user security group(e.g Project Manager, Administrator etc.) I tried with the below query got from a forums. But it is not working. Is
there is any way to get the security group of the logged in user using SQL query.
SELECT MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUPS.WSEC_GRP_NAME, MSP_WEB_RESOURCES.RES_NAME
FROM MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUP_MEMBERS INNER JOIN
MSP_WEB_RESOURCES ON MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUP_MEMBERS.WRES_GUID = MSP_WEB_RESOURCES.WRES_GUID RIGHT OUTER JOIN
MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUPS ON
MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUP_MEMBERS.WSEC_GRP_GUID = MSP_WEB_SECURITY_GROUPS.WSEC_GRP_GUID
Thanks in advance, Taj

Taj,
The query above gives you a complete list of user groups and users. It does not filter by resource name/group.
You can get the logged in user using the "USer Filter" webpart, on which the SSRS report is being displayed (assuming you are displaying it on a SharePoint page). You will need to pass this as a parameter into your SSRS report.

Project Server 2013 - Cannot see project schedule in PWA

Project Server 2013 and Project Pro 2013
I have admin authority but for some of the projects loaded to the server, and published, i cannot see the Schedule option in the left frame. At least on project has this option available but several others do not. For the projects where I can't see the schedules:
- Some of these projects were created with imported MPP files from Project 2010, and imported using the wizard,
- Some were created with imported XML files from Project 2010, and imported using the wizard
- Some were created with Project Pro 2013 and saved, published to the P13 server.
Are there some obvious things that I should check as a new admin to this version of Project Server? I'm stumped.
For all of the above projects (with the issue or not) I can succesfully see everything in Project Professional 2013, and everything seems to function normally in the publish process.

Hi,
the first thing to check would be the EPT (Enterprise Project Type) of those projects. Go to server settings, Enterprise Project Types, select the appropriate project type and ensure that the Schedule page is on the left side of the section "New Project
Page/Project Detail Pages".
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2013: customize JSGrid (Project Center, MyTasks, etc...) ?

Hi,
In Project Server 2010, it was possible to customize the JSGrid, thanks to the tutorial included in the SDK "Walkthrough:
Customizing the PWA Ribbon and Accessing the JS Grid". It works really fine, and I used this possibility in many Project Server 2010 implementation for Customer.
I would like to make it on Project Server 2013, but the same code doesn't work. I found some posts
here, where people had the same issue, but no clear answer.
The Project Server 2013 SDK does not contain the same tuto upgraded for 2013, and I hope that this possibility still exists.
If somebody has a very basic example to show how to execute some custom code on Focus Change event, or clic, or what ever event happening on this JSGrid, it would be very nice to share.
My installation is On Premise, not in On Line.
Thank you for your help !

Hi,
In fact for filtering, you have to use delegate.
The "HandleFilter" function must be created by you. You have to bind this function to the correct delegate.
For filtering, the main delegates are:
SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.AutoFilter
SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.LaunchFilterDialog
SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.GetAutoFilterEntries
The post
here explains the process for 2010. For Project Server 2013, the difference is that we don't have the same objects.
Here you can find the way to declare the delegate in Project Server 2013, with the SetDelegate method:
var pc; // Contains the Project Center extension object.
var JsGridControlInstance;
var JsGridSatellite;
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("ProjectCenterMain");
function ProjectCenterMain() {
pc = new ProjectCenterExtension();
function ProjectCenterExtension() {
if (typeof projectCenterComponent === 'undefined')
return;
JsGridSatellite = projectCenterComponent.get_GridSatellite();
JsGridControlInstance = projectCenterComponent.get_GridSatellite().GetJsGridControlInstance();
JsGridSatellite.get_tableViewParameters().bAutoFilterableColumns = true;
JsGridControlInstance.SetDelegate(SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.AutoFilter, HandleFilter);
JsGridControlInstance.SetDelegate(SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.LaunchFilterDialog, FilterDialog);
JsGridControlInstance.SetDelegate(SP.JsGrid.DelegateType.GetAutoFilterEntries, FilterMenu);
function HandleFilter(newState) {
alert("Filter !");
function FilterDialog(param) {
alert("FilterDialog !");
function FilterMenu(param) {
alert("FilterMenu !");
My advice to search, is to put a break point on the ProjectCenterExtension function, and through debugger, tou can drill down in the main methods and properties.
Often you will see functions with get_XYZ(), and then be able to make the matching with the Project Server 2010 syntax.
For the filtering implementation, I beleive that you can deal with your article based on 2010: it should work as soon as you will get the equivalent objects in 2013.
Hope it helps !

Project Server 2013, cannot open project plan in pwa

I have a clean installation of Project Server 2013 and am able to save project plans, send assignments and receive task updates.
The one error so far i'm running into is when I try to open any project plan from PWA - I get the following error:
"we couldn't find the project detail page for this project. see the system administrator."
Can someone assist in resolving this issue?
Thank you,
Damon Curtin | New Signature

Damon,
Navigate to Project Web App>>PWA Settings
Select Enterprise Project types option from "Workflow and Project Details Pages" section
Validate "available project details page section" by default schedule and project details should be selected in right hand side column, if it is not then add these two pages and click save.

Project Server 2013 SSRS popup reports

Hi All,
We have developed SSRS reports and added link (using java script) to the report to open a sub report as pop up. We tested in SSRS report manager, the popup is working fine. But when we deployed in Project Server BI center using performance dashboard
designer, the popup is not working. How to fix the issue?
Thanks in advance, Taj

Hello. This isn't a Project Server issue. I would look to post this on the SharePoint forum or the SSRS forum. Paul

Project Server 2013 - SSRS reports don't display icons

We have an SSRS report that works fine in Visual Studio. It works fine in the PWA reporting document library for test. However, when we put it into production, we are getting an issue where the SSRS icons/images and the report icons for the parameter drop
down do not display. The image inserted is of the top header of the report where everything is a dot and should be the "refresh" and left arrow/right arrow icons from the web page and the parameters and "collapse" icons that display
the red x.
Collin

Hi Collin,
This is more of a SharePoint / SSRS issue rather than Project Server. It could be a permission issue. Or even an access issue - may be you have an alternate access mapping etc.
It might be worth posting this query on one of the forums below:

Matching resources based on skill profile (Project Server 2013 Online and Project Pro 2013)

Hey gang,
Has anyone seen any reported bugs surronding the resource matching feautre in Project 2013 (On-Line)?
I have done this before, so I know how this works. In fact, I get different results when I try the Match button in Project Professional 2013 (on premise), versus when I try to use it via Build Team from Enterprise in PWA Project Details. i.e.,
when setting up the custom enterprise resource field for matching I have selecting the option to use this field for matching, then I populated my resources' profile with a value accrodingly.
Also noted that I do not see the matching button when using the Build Team from Enterprise for Resource plans, is this normal?
Thanks in advance,
\Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

Hi Spiro,
I didn't have a chance to test it. Nevertheless I can confirm that at least for PS2010, the "match" feature was not available for the resource plan "build team". In my point of view, that makes sense since the resource plan is not intended to micro-manage
activities but more for planning generic skills demand.
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2013 on premises Project Archiving not happening

Dear All
I have a small problem, in that my overnight jobs are not kicking off. Things like the Scheduled Project Backups and the OLAP cube. The cube builds ok if I do it manually, it just doesn't even start overnight.
I've had a look in the Time Job Status page in Sharepoint, but simply can't see anything there that indicates there is a scheduled job for the backups or the archive. Nothing appears to be failing, it's just not there.
If anyone has any ideas I'd very much appreciate it.
John.

Hi Paul
I used one of my calls with MS for this in the end, and after much checking and deliberating they came up with the same solution as you did. Thought you'd like to know.
The actual issue was that my PWA instance had no WebAppUsername account against it, quite how I managed to do that I don't know. The following Sharepoint Powershell commands identified that little problem.
$serviceapp = get-spserviceapplication | ? {$_.TypeName –like “*Project*”}
$pwainstances = $serviceapp.Sitecollection
$pwainstances
The final command prints out a table of information for each PWA instance, thought it might be useful for someone if they experience a similar problem.
John.

Project Server 2013 Project Site Documents

Hi All,
We are using project server 2013. The project site (template) document library is configured with the project folders and templates. i.e. when the project is created, the project site will be created with required project document templates. We want to delete
the project document templates from the projects sites which was created already, how can we achieve this.
Thanks in advance, Taj

Taj,
The simplest way I can think of is to use PowerShell. Be careful with it, though, and test in a test enviroment, so that you do not end up deleting files that you actually want.
This article should give you a good start: https://habaneroconsulting.com/insights/Delete-SharePoint-Files-With-PowerShell#.VOGMePnF-So

Error while creating a Timesheet - Project Server 2013

Hi everyone,
One of user of PWA encounters an issue when he tries to create a timesheet. This error only occurs with a timesheet of
a specific period, he can create all the other timesheet.
So, when he creates the timesheet, this error occurs : "The timesheet creation failed, because of problems with Project Web App or with data validations"
After reloaded the list of the timesheets, a link to go to the specific timesheet
is available but if we click on it, we have this error :
"View Failue - The view failed to load"
I think , this error occurs
because the timesheet is not realy existing even if we have a link to it.
In the log (full log at the end), I've got this error :
Exception occured in method 'TimeSheet.CreateTimesheet' System.ArgumentException: These columns don't currently have unique values.
I've found this link with the same kind of problem :
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/projectserver/en-US/b0a92afc-11fc-40ef-9a44-357d953b31f6/unable-to-open-or-create-timesheets-these-columns-dont-currently-have-unique-values?forum=projectserver2010general but I've checked and published all the
user project but still have the error.
Have you got any idea where are these columns ? How can I found them without checked every project of PWA ?
Thanks,
Patmol

Also have you tried to open it using a delegation session?

I also get the same error when I'm trying to do the synchronization between Enterprise Resource Pool and Active Directory.
I am in a single domain topology between Project Server 2013 and AD, and I'm doning the synchronization with the farm admin account, who has read/write access to AD.

Project Server 2013 - OLAP Cube Build Issues

Hi,
I have a Project Server 2013 environment with SQL Server 2012 SP1. My cube built successfully and Report Authors group (including me) were accessing the templates and Data Connections from BI centre successfully.
I re-built the cube and suddenly we all cannot access templates or data connection as it says 'Access denied'!
Went to server hosting Analysis Services and checked the role ProjectServerViewOlapDataRole and didn't see any of the check box ticked for database permissions like it was when I initially built the cube and added Report Authors group and account
that is used by Secure Store app. Membership has both account and group.
Has anyone come across this issue?
Thank you,
SJ

SJ,
The access of the BI Center, templates and data connections are handled by SharePoint permissions and are usually inherited from PWA.
The ProjectServerViewOlapDataRole simply provides the ability to view the data from the OLAP database. It sounds like the issue isn't with the OLAP but rather with PWA itself. An OLAP error would have only precluded you from retrieving data.
Did someone modify the BI Center site permissions recently such as breaking inheritance?

Project Server 2013 - Remove user from resource pool via sync

Hello everyone,
has anyone managed to configure their Project Server 2013 box with a resource pool sync that will actually remove user from the resource pool (disable "User can be assigned as resource" or deactivate users) when the user is removed from the AD
group(s)?
Setup: Single box, SQL 2012 SP1, SharePoint/Project Server 2013 + PU March + CU April. 2 PWA instances, 1 in SharePoint and 1 in Project permission mode. Tried on 2 different machines (different setup, accounts, domains).
Proceedings:
Create AD user U, AD group G. Add U to G.
Go to PWA, setup resource pool sync with G, sync.
U is now in the resource pool, has no PWA permissions.
Remove U from G. Resync resoure pool.
U is still in resource pool, still a resource, still active, can still be assigned as resource.
Adding U back to G an repeating the whole spiel with a resource pool and a PWA group sync of G will result in U being added and removed from the user list (as expected), and U being added but not removed from the resource pool.
Having read
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg982985.aspx and
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg750243.aspx, there does not seem to be an omission on my part.
The first article states:
Note:
The corresponding Project Server User Account is not deactivated based on this synchronization. If the same Active Directory user is configured to synchronize with a Project Server security group, the Project Server user account will be inactivated when
that synchronization occurs. For more information, see
Best practices to configure Active Directory groups for Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization in Project Server 2013.
Unfortunately, this deactivation either does not seem to occur even with a PWA group sync or I misunderstood the article.
So, did anyone manage to setup their resource pool sync in a way, that new resource will be added, but also be removed from the resource pool?
Kind regards,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,
you tried to sync the same AD group that you used for the resource pool sync also with a Project Server permission group?
And on removal of the user of the AD group the project user/resource is not deactivated? Only removed from the group
Regards
Christoph
Hi Christoph,
even though I might have tried that before, I tried it again in several constellations. It didn't change anything. The the user will be properly added to and removed from the PWA group whenever I remove them from the AD group, the use will also stay active
(but cannot logon without permissions). However, the user will always remain in the resource pool, i.e. the "User can be assigned as resource." checkbox will remain unless it is cleared manually.
Having re-read the technet articles, none of the scenarios actually seem to descibe or address the process that I require, or maybe I'm just misunderstanding. Let me just try to outline the core issue:
Add user to AD group. Sync AD group with resource pool. User is now a PWA resource and PWA user.
Remove user from AD group, but do not deactivate/delete user from AD.
(Magic happens!)
User cannot be assigned as ressource in PWA.
So, is there anything to make this step 3 happen, or is it just not possible to sync users out of the resource pool anymore unless they are deleted/deactivated in AD?
Kind regards,
Adrian

What I'm trying to do is to create a new Project from the scratch, update the Issues List, not deleting or modifying columns, just creating new columns in order to match the names he (the Project Manager) put in his Issues List, then Export the list to Excel,
and then create a datasheet view matching the Exported list, but here I don't know how to import the list (copy / paste or whatsoever it can be done...)
Do you know how to do it, or do you know another/any method to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance,
José Espases

Hi José,
2 considerations:
The first one is that (as you experienced) one should not delete or rename any of the predefined columns in the risk/issue list. What you did is the right way, meaning keeping the native column as is and creating new ones based on the business needs. Finally
you just need to create view with the appropriate fields.
Then for importing risks from an Excel list, I can't test it right now, but you should have a datagrid view (MS Access type) allowing you pasting data from Excel.
Hope this helps,
