Resource Task view for managers

Question

Hi,
Is there any way to provide a ‘My Tasks’ view for managers to view and update their resource’s tasks?
Your help is appreciated

Answer 1

Hi,
still not sure, what you want to achieve:
1. Manager can view and update all tasks for his resources:
Change Default assignment owner and republish all projects --> but team members will not see tasks any longer
2. Manager can view and update some tasks for his resources:
Change assignment owner for these assignments in any usage view in Project client --> but team members will not see these tasks any longer
3. You cannot get updates for the same tasks (assigments) by different people, so either manager or resource. However, manager can (only) see assignments for his resources in Resource Assignments view (Resource Center - select resource - click on Resource
Assignments), while getting updates by resources.
4. The last option is to use Delegate feature. Leave settings as they are (so assignments displayed on resource's Tasks page and gettr updates by them) and allow managers to act as delegate for their resources. Here a sample for 2010, it is the same for
2013: http://epmsource.com/2009/12/05/project-server-delegates/ So manager can "log on" as resource and update status on their behalf.
Does that help?
