Sharepoint 2013, MS Project 2013 - Task List not updating when the project file is changed

Hi
I have created a SharePoint task list and timeline from a MS Project 2013 file on my PC. I have then created a new Project file from that task list which then places the new project file in the site asset folder and provides me with a synced copy. I now
only use the SharePoint copy of the project file in my MS Project as any change I make to the project file should be reflected in the Task list and vice-versa
However if I add some tasks into the middle of the project with MS project, the SharePoint Task list is not updated to show these additional tasks. If I open the SharePoint task list with MS Project - from the task list toolbar - the project file shows the
added tasks.....so the MS Project file in the site asset folder is correct  but the tasks in the SharePoint task list is not being updated
Anyone seen this before ?
Thanks
Geoff

Hi Esben,
According to your description, the error occurred when opening the task list with the content approval enabled in Project.
Per my knowledge, when we enable the content approval for the task list, the field named Approval Status which is required will be created in the list.
However, if a project plan doesn’t contain a field that is required in SharePoint, the plan won’t sync.
The error occurs because of the required field Approval Status when the content approval is enabled in the task list, so we need to add the required field as a custom field in Project.
More information:
Sync with a SharePoint tasks list:

  • VBU-FKSAA field not updated when the item category is changed

    Hi,
    The sales order is created with the item category ZZZZ which is not relevant for billing. So the VBUP-FKSAA value is blank which means not relevant for billing.
    Now in the change mode, the item catg is changed to XXXX. this is relevant for billing. But even after changing the item catg the billing status is not changed. so the sales order can not be billed.
    Please let me know if anyone has come across this problem and also the soution.

    Thank You Vincent. It works for finish goods that currently have cost in the sap-bo (taking std or avg) . Do you what should I do when the item is receiving the first-transation and it is an inventory entry coming from DTW ? Because when I test this conditions, the field "price" is ignored and when I check the inventory entry sent using dtw the recorded cost is "cero".
    Thank a lot

  • IMovie '11 How do I recover a project that appears within the IMovie Projects folder but does not show in the Project Library?

    I have had my MBP for just over 3 months now!  Yes, I made the switch and up until now I have been quite happy.
    I now have my Time Capsule, Apple TV running and am generally getting used to life as a Mac user.............even bought Aperture and loaded all the family photos.  Now time to make some Travel movies.
    I have been working on a particular IMovie project for a few weeks now.  Size is 365MB.  Yesterday I closed IMovie and when accessing later that project is not available in the Project Library window.  It does appear in the IMovie Projects folder but I cannot open it.  I have copied the file to DVD just in case.  All up I have 4 Projects, the other 3 are practice files, smaller but they do appear in the Project Library.
    I have scoured the bulletin boards and tried many suggested fixes to no avail.  Main suggestion was to remove the following files from Library/Preferences
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    However, this did not sort out my problem.  In the end I put back the original files.
    Does anyone have a straightforward fix for my problem or is this one of those ongoing issues that that needs Apple's attention. 
    After all the file is there with the others.  They are available.
    I realise that I can restore from Time Capsule but I am missing the last three days thanks to 'drop out'.
    Thanks.......

    Yes, considering we have an ongoing 'glich' within an Apple program with no obvious solution, we should be able to direct it straight to an Apple rep.  I will peruse this possibility when I get a moment.
    You can report the problem by providing feedback to Apple. In the iMovie app, from the menu select iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback. This will take you to an Apple page where you can complete a form and submit it to Apple.
    The fix for this will probably turn out to be simple/easy.....................so why doesn't Apple comment and/or address it????
    Other than the forum moderators, Apple doesn't normally monitor these forums, nor make comments on posts. So, it's up to us to report the problem to them directly (using the feedback form mentioned above).
    As the problem has affected me just the one time (touch wood), I haven't bothered to report it as yet. But, after seeing your posts on this, I'm now reconsidering that. Something must be triggering it. My system is in pretty good shape, so I'm guessing it must be a glitch of some sort, either in Mountain Lion or in the iMovie app itself. Perhaps it's a 3rd party app causing the problem? It doesn't give us much confidence now, in that we may start worrying about losing other projects.
    A good practice is to duplicate the project from time to time (something I'll be doing more of), although Time Machine backups also provide the necessary security. To duplicate, in Project Library view (where all the projects are listed) click on the project name so that it is highlighted, then select File > Duplicate Project. Alternatively, right-click (or Control-click) on the project name and select Duplicate Project from the pop-up menu. Of course, you may already know this. Duplicating probably won't guarantee that the copy will not also disappear from the Project Library, but is worth doing anyway.
    As I mentioned in the post I linked to earlier, when the problem arose with my iMovie project I was using ProRes 422 clips I had imported from a Final Cut Pro X Event. My immediate thought was that ProRes 422 had caused the problem. But this of course may have been coincidental - reinforced now by your experience, where you are probably working with Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) clips.
    Anyway, glad to hear that you've recovered your project through Time Machine. Unfortunately, I had to start from scratch as I had Time Machine turned off during my editing sessions (that's a story for another day).

  • 6.1 NPD - Project Name and Status not showing in the Project Header

    I have this issue in 6.1 NPD - The NPD Project Name and Status is not showing in the Project header when opening a project. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Is this happening for NPD Projects that are newly created, prior to clicking Save? Or for already existing NPD projects?

  • [Forum FAQ] Group Policy Preferences Scheduled Tasks Item not working when the option Run whether user is logged on or not is selected

    Scenario:
    We use one of the following Group Policy Preferences Scheduled Tasks item to deploy a task to clients:
    Computer Configuration -> Control Panel Settings -> Scheduled Tasks -> New -> Scheduled Task (At least Windows 7)
    Computer Configuration -> Control Panel Settings -> Scheduled Tasks -> New -> Immediate Task (At least Windows 7)
    User Configuration -> Control Panel Settings -> Scheduled Tasks -> New -> Scheduled Task (At least Windows 7)
    User Configuration -> Control Panel Settings -> Scheduled Tasks -> New -> Immediate Task (At least Windows 7)
    (Note that on some platforms, "At least Windows 7" is replaced with "Windows Vista and later.")
    After designating a user account to run the task, we select “Run whether user is logged on or not” option, and “The Do not store password…”
    check box is automatically grayed out (See Figure 1).
    Figure 1
    After finishing configuring the task item, on a client, we run command
    gpupdate/force to forcefully update group policy. However, on the client, when we check if the task is listed in Task Scheduler snap-in, the task is not displayed, and when we run
    gpresult/h report.html to collect group policy result for troubleshooting, we see an error as similar as shown in the following figure (Figure 2).
    Figure 2
    Cause:
    To make the scheduled task run whether the user is logged on or not, we need to store the password of the designated user account. However, for the content of the scheduled
    task item is stored in Sysvol where it’s not safe to store passwords, this function has been deprecated.
    Workaround:
    We can run the task with system account
    NT Authority\System, or we can use specific user accounts to run the task when the given user is logged on. (See Figure 3)

    Hello Everyone,
    Succeeded !!!!!!!
    Even i was struggling with this same Problem to execute a batch via Window scheduler and set the setting to "Run whether the user is logged in or not".
    I tried many time but the batch runs with " Run
    whether user is logged on" and not with "Run
    whether user is logged on or not".
    what i discovered is that there was one mapped drive
    path in my batch file which was not the complete path like y:/AR.qvw actually what i did i changed that map path to the complete path like \\servnamename\d$\AR.qvw and the batch executed successfully with the setting "Run
    whether user is logged on or not"
    The
    conclusion is that check the dependency of the script on external resources because when you check this option "Run
    whether user is logged on or not" It actually conflicts. This my discovery.
    If
    you have any question write me on [email protected]
    Thanks
    & Regards,

  • Why is my wish list not updating when I add songs through iTunes Radio?

    Wish list is not updating.

    Count me in the same boat.  I'm an iTunes Match customer.  While listening to iTunes Radio I push the star and then choose to add to wish list except it never adds.  Doing the same function on my Mac works fine. 
    I found a note from Apple that stated you can only add "albums" to your wish list on iOS 7, not songs.  That then begs the question....why add functionality that is purposefully intended to add songs in your own UI????

  • The Creator of an Assigned Tasks is not Updated when Changed from Mobile Device

    We have a Shared Mailbox where we create Tasks and assign them to the appropriate engineer. In Outlook, if they open and modify the assigned task, after they have accepted it of course, and then save it, a message is received in the Shared Mailbox with the
    update. When that is opened and closed, the task on the Shared Mailbox is updated.
    However, if that Task is updated on a mobile device, WP8.1 in this case, the creator does not get a new message with the changes.  If the assigned user looks at it in Outlook, he/she will see the changes.  But the originator never receives a message
    with the changes.
    Am I missing something or is this by design?  Thank you in advance for any assistance.

  • Dropdown list not updating when bound db changes

    I hope someone can help me.  I have a form created by Livecycle Designer ES.  It contains a dropdown list populated by a bound to a database table. All works well until the database table is altered.  The dropdown list does not reflect the change.  It is as if the values were snapshotted when the was saved in Livecycle.  I have been unable to find a way to make the list update. 
    Details:
    LiveCycle Designer ES version 8.2.1 - part of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with the latest updates.
    The table is contained in a SQL Server 2008 R2 database. 
    The data connection: OLEDB Database,
    Provider: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
    Connection: UFN
    What am I doing wrong?
    -Rhinoplasty2012

    Hi Paul,
    Thanks for helping. I'm using Acrobat to view the PDF form. Thus, shouldn't have any problem connecting to the database.
    I've captured some screenshots as below and hope it helps you understand my situation better.
    This is my Access database
    This is my PDF. Added a data connection "Product" using SQL Query "SELECT ProductCode, ProductName FROM PUB_Product WHERE ActiveInd=yes" whereby it will only extract the "active" products.
    Binded the product code dropdown list with "Product" data connection to populate the list.
    The output of the PDF form. Only the active products are being listed.
    Now, if let's say I add a new product to my PUB_Product table, the dynamic form will straight away list the new product but not the static form.
    Dynamic form
    Static form
    In order to see the new product listed in the static form dropdown list, I have to re-open the form in Live Cycle and just simply save it. So my question is, is there anything I can do to skip this "open and save" step?
    Thanks.

  • Revenue not update in the project

    Dear All
    I had created the Project  and i had assigned to the sales order in account assignment  tab.Then i have created Billing with reference to sales order and i had checked in report i can't able to see the Plan and actual revenue for the proejct.Here we are useing milestone type of billing.In the planning profile i had ticked bottomup planning i had selected annual values And i had ticked automatic revenue planning from sales order Please guide me to solve this error
    Regards
    Raj

    check with your FI consultant what is the revenue element type - should be 11 not 1
    also check the account determination entries in sales order - does the sales order determine the revenue account - if that is correct than this should be reported against the assigned WBS (billing element). In sales order go to Environment -> Analysis -> Account determination - check the GL account determined
    In planning profile maintain revenue from sales order - in this case revenue element maintenance in planning profile is not required
    also remember to assign the billing plan for the line item else there will be no revenue against the WBS

  • Application does not load when the JNLP file URL is given

    Hi,
    I have created a JNLP file to load a swing based application and i'm trying to host it on a tomcat web server.
    But when i type in the URL in the browser window, nothing happens. No errors shown.I'm not able to figure out where i have gone wrong. following are the steps i have followed:
    1)Created a .jar file which contains all the class files required for the application to run
    2)created another jar file containing the main class file which loads the application.
    3)included these two jar files in the JNLP <resource> tag
    4)placed the 2 jar files along with the jnlp file in the ROOT directory of the web server.
    5)type in teh URL of the jnlp file which is supposed to start the appilcation.
    please do let me know if i'v done anything wrong in the above steps..
    TIA,...

    Check if the href attribute in the html file is
    referencing the jnlp file correctly or not.I'm not using any HTML file to access this jnlp... i'm directly giving the URL smthing like this--> http://localhost:8080/test/client.jnlp
    where, client.jnlp is present in a directory called test under the ROOT directory of the tomcat/webapps.
    i hope this is the way to do it!!! plz do correct me if i'm wrong...!!!
    TIA...

  • External Class files not updating when "Delete ASO Files" executed

    I've got an external .as file in the same folder as my flash file. In the process of writing the code, whenever I make a change and then test the movie, the flash movie is obviously still looking at the OLD information. I tried using the "Delete ASO Files" on the menu, to no avail.
    I can' find these ASO files anywhere on my computer. ARE they hidden?
    Aha! I tried something else. I quit flash,restarted and ran the same script with no changes. It returned the data correctly, but then gave me this unpleasant message:
    256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.
    This is probably an infinite loop.
    Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.
    There are no loops of any kind in the code, which is below.  Thanks in advance for your assistance.
    //This is the Person.as file:
    class Person {
    public var HomName:String = "unknown";
    public var HomEmail:String = "unknown";
    public var HomPhone:String = "unknown";

    trace(Client.myHomSaveFreq);
    trace(Client.myPeriod);
    stop();

    I don't have an anonymous ftp site, but its so simple, lets keep it simple.
    1. Create a new Flash file, AS 2.0 and paste this snippet in frame 1 script panel
    var Client:Person = new Person("Terry,[email protected],323-232-3232,6,day");
    trace(Client.myName);
    trace(Client.myEmail);
    trace(Client.myPhone);
    trace(Client.myHomSaveFreq);
    trace(Client.myPeriod);
    stop();
    2. make a text file and put the following code in it, and name the file Person.as
    class Person {
    public var HomName:String = "unknown";
    public var HomEmail:String = "unknown";
    public var HomPhone:String = "unknown";
    public var HomSaveFreq:Number = 0;
    public var HomSavePeriod:String = "unknown";

  • Textfields iOS not updated when the XML allready is updated

    Hi,
    I am testing an app for iOS and later on also for Android. I am using an XML from PHP with and also without a MySQL database.
    In one case I only use the current date to be published in the app in a textfield. Problem is that to get all ML connected textfields updated even when the XML allready is updated I have to completely restart the iPod Touch which I use to test on. Is there a way that the user is able to push a button to manually update the app without closing down the device? In addition, is there away that the app automaticaly refreshes its content?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Took me some time to find out why I didn't succeed.
    I finally succeeded in the way kglad suggested.
    Problem was that when you close the app and later on open it the information for example a date/time through php/xml doesnot change.
    That is untill you click something.
    So  my test with just the date didnot seem to change anything.
    But when I hit a button to another frame and send it back
    The date/time are updated.
    Thanks kglad for pointing me in the right direction.

  • Sharepoint 2013 Active Directory Import- Manager field not updating

    Hi,
      SharePoint 2013 Active directory import  -Manager field not updating
    Concern/Issue-
     We are using SharePoint and configured the Active Directory Import .First import it seems everything is working fine and OOB Organization chart  built using User profile data is coming out right.
    Now the user is moved from one Organization Unit to Another.
    Now our Manager field is not Updating .There is change in AD manager attribute but not reflecting in the SharePoint User profile.
    Manger field is mapped to "manager" attribute in SharePoint.
    We tried removing the user and Re-Import using Incremental import but no luck.
    Thanks for help in advance
    Sachin

    Moving a user from one OU to another in AD won't normally change the Manager attribute in AD.  You would need to edit the user's organization settings to change the manager value in AD.  I've also seen these changes not be picked up unless something
    other than just the manager field in AD changing.  Try changing something like Office location and see if the manager change is picked up by AD Import.
