I tried below solutions to resolve the isue but no luck
1) I ran below query against publish and draft DB's but didnt get any records for both DB's (i have 2 baseline in my project i.e. Baseline0 and Baseline1)
select * from MSP_TASK_BASELINES
where MSP_TASK_BASELINES.PROJ_UID = 'A904E33C-1D81-43C4-9F02-6BB7EA04A10B' and MSP_TASK_BASELINES.TASK_UID NOT IN (
select TASK_UID
from MSP_TASKS
where PROJ_UID = 'A904E33C-1D81-43C4-9F02-6BB7EA04A10B' )
2) Copied baseline0 to baseline10 and baseline1 to baseline9 then publish
3) Set Publish field to "NO" then published project plan and Publish to "Yes"
4) Tried through Project import wizard - It doesnt allows to import after resources mapped (step2)
5) Overided the project plan (took a local copy and saved again with same name)
DEC 2013 CU has been installed
Please help me to resolve this issue
Regards
santosh

Hi Hrishi
Thanks for the reply
Tried all the options. still issue persists
so i deleted % complete column values then assigned resources and updated actual's manually after issue has been resolved

Hi Paul,
We are using a third party tool called UMT Project Essentials 2012, recently we have removed the tool from sharepoint central admin and uninstalled from the server.
We tried deleting some missing assemblies features web parts which are referencing to that tool but still we are not able to start the workflow and the same issue persists.
below are the log file for your reference.

Project Server 2010 Jobs All 'Waiting To Be Processed'

Hello,
We have installed Project Server 2010 for evaluation and are running into an issue when creating new projects in the Project Center. The installation included SharePoint 2010 and is a single-machine install (i.e. DB and WFE on same machine).
We can access the site without any problem and when accessing the Project Center and electing to create a new project from Basic Project Plan template, the interface processes the request and then informs us that the request was taking a long time to process
and to check the Manage Queue Jobs interface for status.
Reviewing the queued jobs reveals four queued tasks for Project Create, Project Publish Notifications, Project Publish and Start Workflow, all with a Job State of 'Waiting To Be Processed'. When we originally ran into this issue, we realized that the
User Profile Synchronization Service was configured to run with the Network Service account and that the two relevant ForeFront Identity Manager services were not running. We had read that this may cause the queue to not process requests, so we reconfigured
the system to use a domain account and started the User Profile Synchronization Service Application (which in turn started the ForeFront Identify Manager services).
However, this did not help and the jobs (as well as new jobs) are still waiting to be processed. We don't see any errors listed in the queue and can't really find relevant errors in the SharePoint logs or event viewer.
Has anyone else run into this problem who can provide some insight? Thanks.
John

Another thing to check John, and you may well find evidence in the ULS logs, is that the queue service is really running. Just looking in Services isn't enough. When the queue service starts it will check for the presence of PWA sites within
each and every (probably just one) Project Service Application you have running. It will then spawn an extra process for each Service Application it finds that has one or more PWA instances. So you should always see at least two Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Queuing.exe
processes running within Task Manager -and if you just see one the looking in the ULS logs should give an indication why it didn't start up (re-starting will give you a fresh entry in the log - which will be easier than searching through lots of logs.
Best regards,
Brian.

Reports permission in Project server 2010

Hi,
I have reports created in SSRS, i need to bring those reports to Project Server PWA. How to do that? i need the steps.
Reports like Number of active resources working in Project, Number of projects in that PWA instance.
My requirement is, i have a structure like Executives - Program Managers1- 1.Project Manager 2. Project Manager.
Program Manager2 - 1. Project Manager 2. Project Manager.
Each program manger has to see only their projects(the project which comes under him) in PWA not the other Program Manager's project and Project Manager has to see only his project not the other project manager's project in the same program.
I have Executive who should see all the projects in the organization.
Can someone assist me how to execute in Project Server 2010 PWA?
K.Gokulraj

Hello,
Sounds like you might need to use the project server security to filter the data in the reports, take a look at this example:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee862408(v=office.12).aspx
To get the reports in side PWA there are several options. As you are querying this I guess SSRS in not SharePoint Integrated mode? If in SSRS Native mode you can just add page viewer web parts on the pages in the PWA site then reference the report server
report URL.

Setting Up Earned Value Reporting in Project Server 2010, Using Hours Not Dollars

Hello All,
Are there instructions for setting up Project Server 2010 for Earned Value data capture and reporting? I'm not certain that we are capturing the correct data to report EVM (i.e., Physical % Complete), and I was unable to find any videos on YouTube.
Also, I noticed that Project Server 2010 defaults to reporting EV in Dollars. Can we set it up to report in Hours instead?
Julie

Hi Julie,
If you allow to jump in to complement Dale's excellent reply and comment some of your concern...
5. The status date is a fundamental parameter while talking about the EVM (it is ANYWAY a key setting for tracking projects with MS Project). The EV field will take into account actuals up to this date. Meaning that if your project plans have been updated
by the PM on tuesday and you are running the analysis on friday, you set the status date to tuesday and the uncomplete work between tuesday and friday will not be considered as late work since you are running the analysis as of tuesday. The status date can
be set from the "project" tab either in the project information dialog box or directly in the project tab, status group.
6. MS Project proposes 3 EVM tables by default. A table is a predefined set of column which composes a view, together with a Gantt chart or a timephased grid. If you go to the view tab, click on "tables" then "more tables",
you will find EV, EV cost indicators and EV Schedule indicators tables which will display the out of the box EVM fields calculated by MS Project based on the costs, actuals, Baseline, status date.
Then about the cumulative data, you might be refering to S-curves which are a representation allowing you showing the cumulative values of the EV. To do that, you'll have severals ways:
Use the cumulative calculated field in the visuals reports
Create
Dashboards from the report tab using the cumulative data (actual, Baseline, cost)
Create
MDX mesures in the OLAP cubes for cumulative data and create excel reports
Develop custom SSRS reports
Buy a 3rd-party addon
Finally please let me give you an excellent reference for the EVM in MS Project with EPM Central blog articles:

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.

[Project Server 2010] Maximum Number of Job processor Threads in the queue settings

Hello,
I have a farm with SharePoint 2010 and Project Server 2010 installed. The farm contains:
2 web front end servers
3 application servers
Each servers has 4 processors
The SQL databases are installed on our database servers.
The Microsoft Project Server Queue Service 2010 is started on the 2 web front end servers and on 1 applicative server.
We have two instances of PWA are installed on this farm.
I have calculated that the number of availabe processors we could have on this farm is : 4 processors X 3 application servers (the ones where the project queue is started) = 12. Is that correct? I'm not sure of the definition of the applicaton
server that is used in
this article )
If I set the Maximum Number of Job Processor Threads (in the queue setting) to 2 per queue and per instance. We could have 2 Job processor X 3 application servers X 2 pwa instance = 12 threads to operate at the same time, is it correct?
If yes, do you think this is a too high number of threads?
Thanks for your help
Aline

Hi Aline,
These settings are for fine tuning the servers, and are only one of many performance parameters. If you notice the response from the server is slow, regarding Queues, then I would think about amending these upwards, but also with a careful eye on processor
utilisation. If you up the thread count and the system isn't any more performant, then I would look elsewhere for perf improvements. Before you do anything of course, baseline the performance of the system.

Line Classification Reporting in Project Server 2010

I’m trying to understand the Line Classification (LC) functionality and reporting in Project Server 2010 having not used this before.
I have added a new LC titled ‘Billable’ to the system and then added a task to my timesheet with the new Billable LC and then logged time to both the Standard and Billable LCs of the same task (not sure why MS have decided to call this Billing Category
– rather confusing). I was expecting that when the timesheet was approved the hours in both the Standard and Billable LCs would be combined and the total show-up on the task in the MS Project Professional plan but this appears not to be
the case, only the hours logged to the Standard LC show in the project plan.
Is this correct or am I missing a step to get the new LC hours into reporting?
Thank you.

Hi Jane,
I'll try to be more explicit. Hours logged against other LC than standard will NOT be lost, they will simply not be pushed to the project plan. Only those against standard LC will be pushed as actual work after PM approval.
That being said, ALL actuals regardless of the LC will be in the Reporting DB and OLAP cubes for example. Meaning that using for example one of the 3 timehseet OLAP cubes, you'll be able to report actual hours against LC, periods, projects, resources, managers...
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2010 export to Excel 2007 fails

I keep getting the following error when I try to export Resource Availability to Excel. I am using Project Server 2010, Excel 2007, IE8, Windows 7. I have PS set as a intranet site with low security set. Coworkers with the same setup are
not having this issue. I have tried exporting to Excel with Excel open, Excel closed, on a hardwire network connection, on wireless network connection, on my corporate VPN and not on my corporate VPN.
Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file "URL here" for the possible reasons:
-The file name or path does not exist.
-The file is being used by another program
-The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open worklbook.
Please provide suggestions on what to try differently to make the export work. I have tried downloaded other version of IE and have the same issue.

Hi Julia,
since nobody jumped in, I'll give a try!
Have you tried to reinstall Excel or at least repair it?
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2010 PWA Provisioning Error - System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied.

Hi,
When migrating from a Prod Environment to a Test Environment using the Project Server 2010 5 Database backup and restore process (actually 6 DB's with the Project Sites DB), upon encountering a failure during provisioning the PWA Instance, we get the errors listed
at the base of this posting in our Event Logs.
To clarify what we have done already, we have:
1. Backed up the 6 databases from the Source Environment.
2. Removed the existing PWA_Content and PWS_Content (Project Sites) databases from the Target Environment Farm.
3. Restored the 6 databases in the Target Environment.
4. Given the SP Farm Service Account 'db_owner' rights to each of the 6 restored databases.
5. Added the PWA_Content and PWS_Content databases (exact same names) to the Target Environment.
6. Locked down (offline/stopped), all of the SharePoint Content databases in the Farm except for the PWA_Content database.
7. Run the PWA Provisioning process from the 'Project Server' SharePoint Service in Central Admin.
It is during the PWA provisioning that we encounter these errors.
As the Target Environment is for Test/Dev purposes, the SP Farm Service Account is setup to support all of the SharePoint Farm Services, is in the Local Admin Group of each of the Servers (App, WFE and DB), and is actually in the sysadmin
role on the DB Server.
Any suggestions on what is causing this denied access situation would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Wayne

Project Server 2010 - Assigned tasks not visible in PWA

Hi,
When I enter an issue on a project site, the assigned issue is not visible in the PWA under Issues & Risks.
Based on this link (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f5abd024-3c9a-47f8-a7cb-7743fafebf2b/project-server-2010-cannot-see-assigned-issues-and-risks) I have tried to solve it however without success.

As I understand this error could be due to a mismatch between the fields that are 'standard' in the project server and fields that are op the project site.
If the reporting database could not sync, will consequently also the issues not be visible on the PWA??
Any suggestions how to solve this?
Regards,
Dirk

Hello,
Yes, if the Issues & Risks are not being synchronised to the Reporting database then this will impact the issues & risks appearing on the PWA homepage reminders web part. See this post on how the data gets to the Reminders web part in Project
Server 2010:
http://pwmather.wordpress.com/2012/07/13/projectserver-active-issues-and-risks-on-pwa-reminders-web-part-ps2010-sp2010-sharepoint/
The error you are seeing is probably caused by the default Issue or Risks columns being edited or removed from the Issues or Risks lists. It might be worth taking a look at this post:

Project Server 2010 Active Directory Synchronization - duplicate Windows Name - Event ID 7734

Environment: SharePoint Server 2010, Project Server 2010, SP2, DEC 2013 CU (Farm Build number: 14.0.7113.5001)
Scenario:
Domain user has been added to the Active Directory group being synchronized with Project Server for the Team Members group.
That user has participated as a team member in numerous projects, added documents, been assigned tasks, typical project stuff...
Employee quits.
AD account is deleted. (NOT deactivated or moved into another OU)
Time passes...
Employee gets rehired. NEW AD account is set up: same display name, SamAccountName, email address, different GUID of course.
Daily Active Directory job runs again and throws event ID 7734 and the sync ends with a partial fail.
I understand why this is happening. Solutions I've found point me to deleting the Enterprise Object resource in Project Server and then rerunning the sync. Sure, this works BUT won't all of the previous documents, tasks,
etc. be disassociated from that user? If so, this is not ideal.
2 questions:
Is there a better way to deal with the fixing of the resource in Project Server to somehow link the old resource to the new resource allowing the sync to run successfully while still leaving the association to all old content intact?
How are other organizations dealing with rehires when they have been added as resources in Project Server? What is the best practice guidance from Microsoft on this? Are other companies not actually deleting AD accounts when users leave organizations
or are they putting them into a "ARCHIVE" OU or something like that? This happens at least half a dozen times a year at my company. We would like to keep our AD as clean as possible, but this appears to change our approach.
Any suggestion/guidance is appreciated.

For the question to relink the new account to the account which is already available in Project Server. You will have to update the WRES_AD_GUID to Null for the the Resource in MSP_RESOURCES table in the published database.
Whenever a users gets synchronized to the PWA his ADGUID, SAMAccountName, Display Name, Email Address and DepartmentName is Synchronized from AD to Project Server. When the user was deleted and recreated the ADGUID got changed. During the next sync, project
found the user with similar properties but different ADGUID which was updated in WRES_AD_GUID column in MSP_RESOURCES table. Hence it says that there is a duplicate account in the table with the same properties but a different ADGUID
Nullifying the WRES_AD_GUID column value in MSP_RESOURCES table should get the user synchronized to Project server in the next sync.

Background:
We are gearing up to upgrade our Project Server from 2003 to 2010; as part of this process we have installed MS Project Server 2010 on our dev environment. We created Test Project plans and assigned ourselves (we admins) to these plans and all of us have
admin privileges.

Hi, Can you give a bit more detail on how your generating the task approval. Are you going into myTasks and doing self assignment to your test project plans or are you generating these approvals via outlook or are you updating a timesheet and sending status?
If you're using your timesheet have you created all your timesheet periods within server settings, time and task management...Donald R. Landry

Project server 2010 What are the number of Custom fields and views allowed?

How many customizations are permitted in Project Server 2010?
Thanks in advance

Hi
new findings on that issue...
There is an article for Project Online that speaks about limits for reporting: https://support.office.com/en-US/Article/Project-Online-software-boundaries-and-limits-5a09dbce-1e68-4a7b-b099-d5f1b21ba489?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Apart from that you will have an issue if you like to upgrade to Project Server 2013. When trying to convert the 2010 databases to a 2013 database a SQL stored procedure will fail if you have more custom fields than fit into the UserViews.
Error message will be something like this:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): INIT METADATA ERROR! At least one mismatch found between SQL schema for view MSP_EpmProject_UserView and reporting metadata. Call to MSP_Epm_CheckIntrinsicAttributes failed for Projects INIT
METADATA ERROR.

Workaround for the issue (UNSUPPORTED !!!!!!)
Execute the Convertto-SPProjectDatabase script. Now you need to be fast or well prepared. You need to find the MSP_Epm_CheckIntrinsicAttributes stored procedure. Execute an ALTER statement for it and change the last lines of code to something like this:
LblError:
   PRINT @ErrorMessage
--changed RETURN code if an error occurs to be able to proceed with migration
--RETURN 1
   RETURN 0
END
I hope that helps someone out there - when I came across the issue last night, a google query returned nothing for INIT METADATA ERROR....
