Project Start Date – modification after project was saved.

I created new project with  a start date 01/April/2015 and saved it. Next, I change the start date to 14/April/2015 in the setup.
However still in statistics windows I see the start date as 01/April/2015. Additionally, every new task has start date 01/April/2015.
Could you please advise me how can I change that?

Thank you for your prompt reply.
1.Firstly I set up project start date as 01/04/2015 in Project, Project Information and in File, Project Information and save document.
2. Afterwards, I modified start date into 14/04/2015 in the same places.
However, the date in Project, Project Information - Statistics was still 01/04/2015 (please check screenshot).
3. But finally, after several openings and closing of the document the date in Statistics is correct (hard to say what is the reason).

  • Unable to Change Project Start Date in Project Server 2013

    Dear All,
    I have created new EPT in Project Server 2013. After that, when i am creating any new project in PWA 2013 by using newly created EPT, then i am not able to change Date as per my requirement. 
    Basically, EPT created on 02/18/2015 & even though i am changing Project start date then its again showing same date (02/18/2015)
    Kindly suggest what i can do.

    Hello,
    Does this new EPT have a project plan template associated? What happens if you set the EPT not to have a plan template then create a new project from this EPT? Does that let you update the start date? The start date should default to today (date the project
    plan was created). If that works as expected, add the plan template back to the EPT (if you had one to start with) and test creating another project to see if that then works or you then get the same behaviour. This will point us to the cause hopefully.
    Do other EPTs work as expected?

  • Actvities before the Project Start Date

    Every now & then, we will get an activity which is a precursor to a project kicking off as a project start date so in theory from that start date would be known as either week 1 or Month 1.
    So in this case, any actvivity starting a month for example before the kick off date should be shown in "- Month 1" but in Project 2013, it takes this new date as Month 1 even when the Project Start Date has not changed.
    The earlier versions of Project, you could manipulate this so what's changed?...Is there a way around this?
    I am not using Project server as will never use it to save myself from grief & stress!...prefer to keep it simple!

    I couldn't test it with 2013 but with 2010 the week numbering starts at the project start date, so you can have a project start date on a certain date which will be your week1, and then set predecessors with no impact on the numbering.
    If you confirm that this behavior jas changed with 2013 version, an option could be to enter as manually scheduled tasks with no dates the tasks prior to the project start date, using custom fields to enter the actual dates.
    Hope this helps,

  • Help scheduling tasks from both project start date and from later deliverable dates

    I am trying to set up a project scheduling template for a number of similar projects.
    These projects will require initial work to be completed at the project start date, working through the critical path to an end date.
    However.  Certain milestones/deliverables are required on specific dates in teh project (they are recievable by internal customers on firm dates).  I am having trouble scheduling my predecessors for these deliverables to occur as late as possible. 
    I.e.  I want my procurement to start x-weeks (depending on the task) before the deliverable is due.
    Trying to manually set the deliverable date and hoping project will work back and adjust the predecessors to fit isnt quite working... is this possible?
    Im using MSP2010 standard

    nategalambos,
    Actually this is probably a very common scheduling scenario. Schedules often have interim milestones, sometimes with fixed dates.
    Just-in-time scheduling has received a fair amount of press in the past but in my view it has some very real negative downsides. I believe the best plans have contingency built in to allow for unknown problems. For example, let's say you have a task that
    must deliver an item on a particular date and in order to build that item you need to order material. You know the built and test time, it's all done by machine, takes 10 days, and doesn't vary from item to item. The lead time for the material is 6 weeks,
    so you set up the schedule to place the material order 8 weeks before the delivery date. However, there is a problem, the vendor who supplies the material has a problem at his factory and the material is delayed such that it won't be delivered in 6 weeks but
    instead it will take 8 weeks. Because you have not allowed for contingency in your plan, your delivery date is now in jeopardy.
    But to answer your question, one way to set up the predecessor you want is as follows. Using my example above, the Place Order task, let's say the delivery date task is task ID 5 and is a milestone. The place order task could have a predecessor of 5SF-40d,
    or 5FS-40d will also work if the place order task and the delivery date are both milestones.
    Hope this helps.

  • PARAMETER_EXCEPTION: Start date is after end date

    WORKLOAD ANALYSIS (PORTAL ACTIVITY REPORTING) : PARAMETER_EXCEPTION: Start date is after end date.
    Hello,
    We get the above exception when we analyzed the extractor framework logs for EP Workload analysis extractor.
    Can someone please advice.
    Thanks
    Srikanth M

    Hi Nacho,
      Could you please check if the Solution Manager time format for the user used for the Workload analysis is same as that of the monitored system. This error was caused in our landscape as the format in the monitored system was having a dd.mm.yyyy and that of the user in solman was mm.dd.yyyy. You can check the same in the transaction SU01 --> Change/Display --> Defaults tab --> Date format.

  • Project needs rendering again after it was all rendered?

    Okay I'm working in a project that is over one hour long and I finished color correcting all the clips and let that render a couple days ago. Today I open the project and all the clips need rendering again indicated by an orange bar on top of the entire project. What's up with that? It's not like rendering just takes a couple of seconds. This is going to take hours again. I'm trying this Final Cut Pro X but I'm still very uncertain about it. Seems the learning curve is taking me much longer than if I were just editing it back in the old standard Final Cut Pro. Any advice help thanks

    I updated. But I just figured it out. I had made a copy of the cc project and that proj was unrendered. now I'm back in the original proj. and it's all rendered as it should be . My bad

  • Unlimited data gone after I was told my plan would not change

    I went the other day to get my wife a birthday present. She had a droid bionic and has had a lot of problems.  She always mentioned that she really wanted a iPhone seeings I have had one for over 2 years with no problems.  So I thought hey why not get her the iPhone 5.  So I did as I was purchasing it I made sure to ask that we would not lose the unlimited data.  I was assured that I would not, so I went ahead and purchased the phone.  Two days later I get a text on my phone stating that I had used 90% of the data on my line.  Then the next day I received a text stating i had used all my data for the month.  So I called Verizon and they stated that because I upgraded that my line had lost the unlimited data.  I stated what I had been assured of at the store and I was told to go back to the store and complain to them.  What good would that do when you told me I could not get my unlimited data back.  What I was told next shocked me, I was told I could get my unlimited data back if I took my wife birthday present back and got a refund then my plan would revert back.  So after that I requested to speak to the loyalty department and was told they did not have one.  I stated yes they did because I had spoke to them before about a issue with a droid device. So finally he stated they did have one but they only do out going calls.  What kind of customer service is that, when you are told to take a gift back and get a refund.  Switching to a new plan would raise my bill to over $200, were is the loyalty to customers who have been with Verizon for years.  I pay 176 dollars a month now I put up with the new activation fee for all phones.  I am seriously considering taking that phone back and switching to another carrier, because it seems like Verizon d does not really care if their customers are happy or not.

    Did you purchase the phone at full retail price or the two year contract subsidized price? Was it a corporate store or a premium retailer? Did you look at your receipt and see if they kept you on the Nationwide Plan or switched to the Share Everything Plan?
    If you are within the 14 return policy period, return the device and call customer service and request an inactive pricing restoration of your previous plan and the upgrade you had used to buy the device. Since you returned the phone, the upgrade eligibility should return, but you NEED to request that your plan be reverted back to its previous setting. If you are outside of the 14 days since purchase, you are out of luck.

  • Deleting project clips and photos after project is completed

    I recently discovered that I have numerous clips and photos in iMovie from previous projects. Is there a simple way to remove these clip etc. from iMovie? Currently I am highlighting each clip and hitting the delete button. It is taking me ages to delete all these clips. If any one has a simpler method, please help.

    you can delete the unused (unused in any Project) portions of any Event by "Move event to trash" and then you get a box that asks you to"Delete" or "Delete unused". Pick the later, if you are sure you never want them again. If you Delete the whole event your project that uses those clips (Movie) will never run again, the Project just tells the computer where to find the source clips music etc.
    You can do this with every event and you may need to dump them from another area in iMovie, rejected clips maybe. And then you need to dump your trash, but once done you will free up huge amounts of HD space.

  • MS Project 2010 Start dates change automatically

    Hi,
    I hope someone can help with this project problem, its driving me insane!
    I have a set of activities which have a start date of 01/09/2014, there are no predecessors to these tasks but there are successors, and a date constraint date (the project start date is 16/06/2014, and these tasks cannot start until 01/09/2014).
    When I mark the tasks as 100% complete the dates do not change (as expected), however once I have saved the file and closed it, something weird happens. When I reopen the file the start date (not baseline start) of these tasks has changed to the project
    start date (16/06/2014). The % complete is still reading 100% complete and the task finish date has remained the same.
    These tasks are milestones and have no duration.
    Another aspect that I have discovered is when I take out the % complete (and it returns to 0%), the start dates change back to 01/09/2014.
    Can anyone tell me if I have a setting somewhere which I need to change as its driving me insane, the more tasks that are marked as 100% complete, the more tasks I have that change to the project start date, so the problem is getting worse as the days go
    on!
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Do you have the Project Status date set correctly, and is it set for the correct date? If its set back in June and under File, Options, Advanced the Move flags are selected you would get the behaviour you mention.

  • Project System - Actual start Date - Activity

    Dear Friends
    Can any body let me how do i put actual start date of activity in project structure?
    Thanks and regards
    Kaushal

    Hi Kaushal
                     Actully when you set the start date at the Project level, it will automatically flow to its sub hierarchy levels as well eg. WBS, NW and other project elements. If you still want to change the actual start of an activity project structure, you can do that by going to date tab of a specific activity say cost activity and change the date from there.
    Thanks and Kind Regards

  • Update SharePoint list with project finish date on Project.Updated event

    Hello,
    I want to update a column in a SharePoint list with the project finish date when a project is updated on Project Server. My OnUpdated event handler is being called ok, but if I change the project start date Project Server runs an asynchronous republishing
    on the project, and my event handler ends up being called before the finish date is update by the republishing job, so the code writes the "old" finish date on the SharePoint list. The solutions I could think of are:
    Identify the republishing job on Project Server queue, pool the queue waiting for it to finish, then read the finish date and update the list item in SharePoint.
    Include a custom job on Project Server queue after the republishing job, that reads the finish date and update the list item in SharePoint.
    I don't know if any of the solutions are feasible and how to implement them. Has anyone coded something like this and/or have a better solution?
    Thanks,
    GB

    I vote for the option 1.
    I did for one of my event handler..Did you try "on published" event?
                projectSvc.QueueUpdateProject(jobUid, SessionUID, projectDss, false);
                //WaitForQueue(q, jobUid);
                jobUid = Guid.NewGuid();
                projectSvc.QueuePublish(jobUid, e.ProjectGuid, false, string.Empty);
                jobUid = Guid.NewGuid()
